Hey Now , this is totally non-Seesta/Goth/Rosetta related, but it will help all of you with a car when you next get a parking ticket.

I got a parking ticket off one of those annoying little scroats who failed both the Police and McDonalds drive-thru interviews.

If in doubt, contest the ticket, I did and won!

If the double yellow line your parked on is not two solid lines ( it may of been dug up and re-tarmaced and they've not re-painted the lines) and has no T-Bar at the end of it, the issuing of a ticket is illegal by law. It contravenes the Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions act of 2002.

Take photos with ya camera phone and send them along with the ticket/ a whinging letter and mention the act and they have to tear up the ticket.


Good luck. We shall over come.

By sheer coincidence, my regular parking spot had been blagged by some ne'erdowell this morning, meaning I had to park in front of him on long since painted double yellows. I've been worring about it all day, you've certainly calmed me right down. Cheers! :D
