SteveW They will probably say that, since the clamp was attached to your car, you were responsible for it! And they would still do you for the parking fine. Bummer.

A private firm acting in a private car park might be somewhat different since the "fine" is in reality just and invoice. -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |
