I can guarantee that if I went to my local sainsburys, 90-100% of the disabled and mother and baby parkers will be parked nose in facing the walkway.
It is laziness pure and simple.

Funnily enough I saw an Enzo parked exactly the same way near me. Copy of the Daily Mail on the dash.Turned out it was Rod Stewart outside his missus place in Wapping and I'm guessing the underground car park was too difficult to enter. But literally one wheel was 6-8" above the rest!

This has been done to death, however that argument goes straight out of the window when you see rows of cars parked like that nose in and guess what that have nosed on to; yep a walkway where you can walk safely down with your kids and load easily onto your boot, if you had reversed in!

I can't wait for your next update including photos of disabled and parent parking spaces with cars parked nose in. You should try sending them to Daily Mail, you'll get £250 if you include a photo of yourself looking angry.I can guarantee that if I went to my local sainsburys, 90-100% of the disabled and mother and baby parkers will be parked nose in facing the walkway.

A worrying lack of ability more like.I'm usually pretty vocal about private parking tickets, their validity and enforceability, and have a very good record with POPLA and court claims.
However today was one of the very rare occasions when I think the ticket was entirely justified....
That said, UKPC are holding my fleet company liable as keeper, so I'll be challenging this on other grounds.

Do you not just pass on the details of whoever has leased it?However today was one of the very rare occasions when I think the ticket was entirely justified....

Every time, but quite often the parking companies don't want the hassle of chasing another person, so pester us for payment. It's just another defence point for me though when they refuse to co-operate.
A friend of mine got a deduction from his wages a couple years ago for parking in a macdonalds and overstaying. He did laptop work for over the 2 hour limit. Car is leased, the parking company invoiced the lease people who duly paid up straight away and then charged his company, who then charged him. The first he heard was when he got his wage slip.Alan L said:

This is one of the reasons we try to transfer liability, because we do not know the specific circumstances of each event. I have dozens of examples of employees, residents and even owners being ticketed in their own parking spaces, and people getting tickets from MET at McDonalds after booking birthday parties there. The parties last 2 hours, but the parking is limited to 90 minutes. Wickes employ a national contractor to do their electrical safety testing and maintenance - they regularly get tickets in our vehicles but G24 refuse to cancel them even though Wickes ask them to be cancelled...Back to your mate though, I'll bet my left bk that the lease company only mentions that fines and endorsable offences are the liability of the hirer, but these private parking charges are nothing more than a contractual invoice at best, speculative invoice in reality.
But I rant about these in the SP&L forum.
