TRAFFIC WARDENS
I FUCKING HATE THEM LOADS.

Despite taking all reasonable precautions I get caught all the time in London by crafty little shits, usually from Africa and with little or no understanding of the English language, who use every trick they know to issue as many tickets as they can.

I've had tickets issued after I've driven off, and even other times when I've clearly displayed a paid parking slip on the window.. when I send said parking ticket they (realising I've stupidly sent in the original slip and not a photocopy) say they never received it; it goes to court and the court unsurprisingly is on their side and I have to pay a whopping fine.

I've also been issued a ticket in Camden at 1am from a CCTV camera whilst waiting on double yellows for five minutes on a quiet street, with hazard lights for a friend to bring out a guitar amp. Utter, utter cunts.

So, when I'm issued a ticket for driving a van and trailer around restricted width barrier posts in a quiet suburban street I decide to consult Google Street View to see if I was adaquately warned about the width restriction. YUZZAH! No warning signs!

I print off the images from google maps and, rather smugly write a letter pointing out the lack of such signage. I receive a letter back, not apologising or pointing out that I was right, but stating that due to 'procedural errors' my ticket has been cancelled.

Utter, utter cunts.
