Clad in a blue leotard and wielding a saw, a man claiming to be the UK's first wheel clamp vigilante is offering his services to motorists.

Why? If you didn't remove the clamp why should you pay for it?

I wonder if he needs a sidekick...

"Parking attendant distraction boy"
or...
can't think of any more sidekick names... anyone else?

you can actually get professional people to remove clamps from your car and as long as it doesn't damage the clamp it's perfectly legal

**Bazzlad** · 16-09-2003, 02:00 PM

I'll be "Sir Traffic Warden Basher" and wear a suit!
this man is a complete legend.

FEAR ME

just stumbled across this on the bbc site..

gotta say this guy is class.. pure class.. shame his webby is down.. http://www.anglegrinderman.co.uk/

Yeah, it is legal to remove your clamp yourself.

After all there is no fine for a clamp, just a removal fee. Do it yourself and you are free to go.

Although it is amazingly funny handing a clamp in with your mate as lost property to the local police station

apparently you just let the tire down and slide it off. then hand it in at the cop shop to escape prosecution

obviously this will only work with certain clamps
