New parking rules could spell chaos.
2 Answers
New rules come in on the 21st of march.
taken from the BBC website below.
"Wheel clamping will be discouraged under new rules
New parking rules coming into force in England on 31 March
In some areas, the penalty for the most serious breaches will rise by 20% and the body which adjudicates on fines says it is expecting more appeals.
The level of penalty imposed on drivers will depend on the offence in question.
Lesser offences will include overstaying in a pay-and-display bay.
It's a question of whether local authorities are geared up to do this
Paul Watters, The AA
More serious offences will include parking on double yellow lines or in a disabled bay.
The AA estimates that three quarters of all offences will fall into the serious category.
Paul Watters, from the organisation, told BBC Breakfast: "It's a question of whether local authorities are geared up to do this, whether they understand all the implications of the new rules, and whether motorists are going to find that authorities are acting fairly.
"So it is quite a big change from one piece of legislation to the next.
"There is a potential for some chaos. as authorities are going to have to run two systems together."
For the first time, councils outside London will be able to issue fines by post using CCTV evidence.
They will also be able to issue a penalty even when a motorist has driven away before a ticket can be physically placed on their car."
What if the traffic warden hasnt given out his/her quota of tickets.Is it possible they will book passing motorists who havent committed any parking offences ?
