Parking enforcement is used by the council to keep traffic moving and to make the roads safer for everyone............................except if you don't drive into town in the first place,
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-23558130I see what they're doing. If you don't drive into town in the first place then the council can't protect the public from your parking skills. In a rare outbreak of honesty a council spokesweasel said,
"It's got f
ck all to do with traffic management. The whole thing has always been about the money, and always will be. We're just glad that Pickles has only issued guidance rather than legislation. The council likes a bit of guidance. We can just pop it in the recycle bin along with the rest of it and then send it away to be pulped down and turned into PCNs. What the lord giveth, the council taketh away."
