I got my first parking ticket today, for "unnecessary obstruction".
I was parked perfectly legally however another car (which parked after me) on other side of the road parked about 10 meters away. There really was no obstruction...
Bloke that lived near (note he owns 4+ cars, probably worth ~20-30k+ each) phoned up police. He told me that the police were there for 20 minutes - at which time they probably got bored and gave me the ticket just to shut him up..
He caused damage to my car, but I have no evidence. I saw him around my car when i was walking back to it which was probably when it was done.
Can I sue him with no evidence apart form my own eyes (from 30+ meters). He also stuck paper to my windows with selotape, which took about 30 mins to get off...
The fine is £30 or waste time + money going to court to contest it. I would have to take a day off work to goto court, and it would probably end up costing 3 or 4x more than just paying it - im guessing even if I win... can I sue him/police for costs?
I will likely spend most of tomorrow at work drawing up ways I can get revenge on postit notes...</rant>
