Is it safe to leave a car there overnight? Just the shopping trolley, but I want it to still have 4 wheels when I get back!

not sure about Newcraighall but know that at the Ingliston one you can't leave overnight - they clamp you if you do but could just be because near the airport I suppose

The site says 50p for 24 hours parking so I'd take that as being okay to leave overnight. Whether it's safe or not is another matter. I'm guessing it will have CCTV like the rest of them.

Er. I though clamping was illegal in Scotland unless done by the Police or DVLA.

am sure it said clamping on the sign as you enter at ingliston, might be towed away then - wasnt cheap as far as can remember either way, must be different at ingliston to stop people parking and going to airport and maybe as no charge at ingliston for parking so far too

it looks like park & ride sites are operated differently -
