1. Well if that doesn’t sort that out then nothing will….

   Do you think the same would work for terrorists??

3. “Oh my god, I’ve got a mock parking ticket! Whatever will I do?
   Oh wait, I’ve just remembered… I don’t care”

4. I’m tempted to go and abandon my car on a double yellow line just to see what these tickets look like.

5. Leicester Mockery is a jolly good paper
   2nd, we had Decriminalised parking here a couple of years ago, and if they go in heavy, the council get a bashing. If people know they will get a ticket if they continue parking illegally, they have nothing to complain about. Hence the mock tickets
   3rd. any parking questions, ask me

7. I suspect (though don’t know for sure) that many more people are legally able to issue a mock ticket than are a real ticket. Makes sense to me.

8. It does make sense in that way… but it does also explain why the roads have been congested for ages and no-one gives two tits about parking on lines because absolutely _no-one_ has been giving out tickets for the last however long.

   In fact… come to think of it, I haven’t seen a parking warden for over a year. At all. Anywhere.

10. Yeah, people who park like twats obviously don’t give a shit anyhow, but I do like the fact they are actually addressing this, correctly or not - It really winds me up when tyring to park and some goon has parked badley so cannot fit in… Grrr

12. Oh, they’re not talking about parking wonkily in a space, DoGGa, this is about stuff like leaving your car on a double-yellow line all day.

14. When I lived in Tanni Grey house, there was about 6 cars all over the double yellow lines which made it nearly impossible to drive into Union Street to park at my flat. I rang the police (0116 number, not 999) and told them there was easy money to be made, but they didn’t give a sh*t. They were more worried about the Fri night town goers. There priorities were probably right, but how would it have taken to book 6 cars when they knew where they were! Like Stu says, eveyone parks everywhere as nothing is done about it!

15. I agree with Dogga, we need people to sort out crap parking in legit spaces as well as just illegal parking.

    Preferably with the use of a bulldozer.

16. You get a mock execution for a second offence

17. Parking on double yellow lines should be a hanging offense.

    Or at least the traffic warden, should be allowed to smash their lights in with a baseball bat.
