Beware of CCTV

Whether your view on parking restrictions that are evident in every town and city is that they help the flow of traffic, or that they are revenue raisers for government, they are here to stay and they are becoming more restrictive in the way that there administered.

As of now, tickets for parking illegally can be issued in an entirely new way. No longer has the parking attendant to hand you the ticket, or fix this to the windscreen of your car. CCTV cameras are now being used to spot those drivers who stop on a yellow line, and this could be for literally just a few minutes. Photographs are taken and a ticket is sent in the post to the registered owner of the vehicle. Obviously you should avoid illegally parking your car, your Qualified Driving Instructor will have fully briefed you about this, and checking the online Highway Code will give guidance also. Avoid that ticket!
