| We have had problems with unauthorised people parking in our (small) carpark at work. It isn't big enough for those who have a right to park there and other people in the area are taking the preverbial **** on a daily basis.
Clamping is a nightmare legally (and causes obvious tension) so we opted for ticketing which at least lets you drive home and pay the fine at your leisure. Basically a registered company sorts out the display signs, provides us with the tickets and we then ticket unauthorised vehicles.
The reason for posting this is to warn people that these tickets are legally enforcable. The companys concerned process the fines and will go to the DVLA to obtain your vehicle details and if need be take you to court (which will cost you even more) if you don't pay within the set period of time.
Oh and before you start slateing me for being a calous and hard hearted individual. We have gone to considerable lengths to notify surrounding businesses that we will be ticketing vehicles, cancelled a number of tickets (out of goodwill) and generally only issue tickets when the carpark is busy/full and we need the spaces for our own customers.  |
