Is There Any Limit To The Number Of Parking Tickets You Can Get Before The Punishment Increases?

Can a millionaire continue to park where they want and just keep paying the fines?

[barry1010]

Depends. If the offences occurred in different places then there would be no further punishment if he paid up.
If he left his vehicle in the same place for days or weeks without moving, it might be towed away then he’d have additional costs. Apart from that, nothing.

Section 3(1)(b) of the Removal and Disposal of Vehicles (Traffic Officers) (England) Regulations 2008 applies, giving the body responsible for parking enforcement in the area (which is still the police in some places but increasingly local authorities or their agents elsewhere) the power to tow away vehicles contravening parking regulations.

well it is a crime and I think there is some sort of law about repeating an offence. Hopefully the judge will be along soon to enlighten us but, yes for all intents and purposes they can keep paying the fines.

I think some do. They employ staff to do such irritating chores.

Didn't someone once say something about finding a convenient parking place outside Harrods - can't think of his name but he was restaurant critic.

I meant if you just kept paying the fines every time, so in effect treating them as an expensive parking charge

[davebro]

I think they could. Most parking fines are dealt with as civil rather than criminal offences. Providing they didn't park on red routes, zig-zags, bus lanes etc. & paid their fines no further action would be taken. Are you gonna do it?
