Do you pass on your parking tickets?  |
| |
|  I dont mean the penalty notices you get for parking in the wrong place but the tickets you get from the machine to display in your car to prove you've paid.
When I went to the hospital this morning, I went to the staff car park (since I pay £70 a year for the privilege of parking at work) but they had no staff spaces left in the multi-storey or any other designated area on site. The place they told me I could go, was about 15minutes walk away. So, I just parked in the public car park and paid the minimum fee of £2 which allows 4 hours. I was back at my car within the hour so, I passed on my ticket with 3 hours remaining, to another driver. The car parks are not run by the hospital trust but by a contracted firm so I was not depriving the hospital of funds. What about you - would you pass your ticket on and would you accept if someone offered you theirs?
(Before anyone points this out to me, yes, I am obviously aware that this is technically "wrong".)

| | I knew someone who paid and started to leave but the arm slammed down on the back of his car! It turned out that the timing mechanism was faulty. I cant remember if the parking company paid up or he had to claim on his own insurance - some disclaimer about parking there at your own risk blah blah... | | | |

| |  I don't see anything wrong with it. You paid for 4 hrs, so what if you share that 4 hrs with someone else. I don't see the difference.
I've never done it because the opportunity never arose.

| | In the past, I have had someone give me their ticket and I've then gone on to pass it to someone else. On a lot of tickets it says "non transferable" but, like you say, a space had been paid for. (not only that, I'd really paid twice!!!) | | | |

| | That's right, since you were a prepaid ticket holder, they should have given you a space for free, in my opinion, and not made you pay again that day. | | | |

| |  I don't see why it's technically wrong. You paid for the time and why shouldn't somebody else use it? It's the same as if you paid for time at a traditional parking meter and when you left somebody else pulled up and used it.
Yeah, I'd do it.
We were in Las Vegas going on 3 years ago and had gotten 24 hours passes for the monorail. They had about 3 hours left on them when we left, so we gave them to somebody.

| |  The one and only parking ticket I got Wizzy, I did not deserve.
I just got it in January and I had run out of the homeless shelter into a stupid motel and I asked the owner of the place if it was okay to park where I did. He said yes no problem and didn't the bastiches nail me at 2am in the morning?
Oooo so anyways I had no monies to pay the dam thing..30 dollars and now it is 60 dollars and if I dont pay it soon, they can impound the car if they ever stop me.
It is bollocks and I cant even afford gas to take it to court to get it dropped.
