Often, drivers do not know where they stand when it comes to private parking and how it is regulated. In a bid to combat this, figures released by the RAC have suggested that 93% of drivers are backing a new bill to regulate private parking due to a combination of factors — from aggressive ticket wardens who two thirds of drivers feel that they’ve encountered, to offences that 84% of people believe weren’t appropriate for the offence.
With this news, the Daily Mirror discovered that millions of issued parking tickets are actually illegal — leaving many drivers the right to request for a refund. “We estimate that in 2013 alone drivers might have been overcharged by some £100 million” commented Professor Stephen Galister, RAC Foundation director.
