The BPA Ltd. Doesn't Even Know What Side Of The Road We Drive On
« on: 26 November, 2014, 08:16:29 AM »
Take a look at this so-called campaign from the BPA Ltd:-

http://www.knowyourparkingrights.org/

Notice which side of the road the cars are driving on? Evidently somebody on MSE has discovered that the graphics seem to have been lifted from an Itunes app.

Typical effort from the BPA.

There's nothing to click on, except to download the leaflet. No contact details, no apparent site owner to complain to, and the cars are driving on the right in the graphics?

Did I miss something or is this from the Boston (USA) Parking Association?

Or more likely, it is somebody's child using some "My first internet page" program?

This is the App those graphics were "borrowed" from;-

I wonder if the BPA Ltd have obtained the necessary copyright clearances?

In all fairness to the Bullshit Purveyors Association,  <Whistle>  the graphics show car parks with no clearly displayed terms and conditions so therefore accurately portray how BPA Ltd members trap unwary motorists.

One of Patrick Trouser-Fire's favourite hobbies is 'challenging misconceptions'. He will be absolutely delighted to hear that the Parking Prankster has agreed to join him in this noble cause,

And he will be even more delighted when he learns that Parking Cowboys are informing motorists of their real parking rights,

Appealing to the council is like playing chess with a pigeon. You might be a chess grand master but the pigeon will always knock all the pieces over, shit on the board and then strut around triumphantly.
