They'll get a ticket like that, I got one once for 4" of car overhanging the end of the space. I contested it & won, but technically over hanging the bay means it's on the yellow line.

Bar the lack of airfilter that looks perfectly at home in there, I bet it's fun.

I scored very low on the autie test. I’m cheerful, happy, confident, like meeting new people, chatty and largely sociable. What the fuck am I doing on this forum?

I never knew that. My van's like that 90% of the time. The traffic wardens around here are cunts as well. I'm mates with one of them. I was having a shower at 5.30 am when I saw two of them jump out of a car and put a ticket on one before fucking off again. Sly cunts. 5.30!

I had a bit of a run in with one as well. Late picking my daughter up from school as one was writing me a ticket.
Howay man I'm only two minutes over. Four minutes actually he said. Fucking wanker.
I put my daughter in the van and told him what I thought. Although he was technically right at least I'd bought a ticket. Not like most of the cunts.

Yeah I wasn't impressed especially as the double yellows were protecting an empty unit that wasn't used. I'd only left the car that far forward to make it easier for my neighbour behind.

Shame for them the wording on the back of the ticket said they charged extra for credit card payments, that made it illegal as the fine was more than the statutory amount. Someone on peipipoo found that and the cuntcil had to overturn and refund thousands of tickets, it made the local newspaper although I wasn't mentioned.
