They don t allow you to stop, to unload... Quite a few of them are illegal immigrant. It's time to regulate that profession, enough is enough. This afternoon 6 of them fining in one street... Scavengers. NCP is making a fortune. Traffic warden are a nightmare, got 600 pounds fines last month in London. They don t allow you to stop, to unload… Quite a few of them are illegal immigrant.

It happened 35 years ago, but is still burning a hole in my heart! To add insult to injury, I paid the fixed penalty... but the council/court mislaid the payment (though cashed the cheque) and wrote to my then husband to take him to court. Explain that away... we didn't last!

I swear they lurk around the corners where there are loading spaces, or double yellow line in a completely deserted street and then as soon as you or the driver walks out of the car, back facing the warden, the monster runs up to your car, "tags" it, and runs back to its hiding spot! Ever seen Tango's Happy Slapping ads? That actually came from observing how traffic wardens operate! Maybe they work on commission?
