Some of them are okay, had quite a decent conversation with one a few weeks back, others are just complete @rses.

One of them has actually ticketed an AMBULANCE on a call to the mobibility centre in Birkenhead, sometimes words just fail me.

Not possible, not allowed to marked emergency vehicles.

I know they're not meant to, but one of them did.

Their machines actually have certain registration numbers built in to them that they can't ticket, for example the guy who repairs/checks the pay and display machines, this does mean however that no matter where he parks his ticket will either not go through or auto cancel.

I'm tempted to make an FOI request and see how many vehicles are on it and why.

They do have certain regs in their handheld but MARKED emergency vehicles would not be given a ticket, they would get into too much trouble and I can guarantee you one wasnt issued to an abulance.

Fair enough but ThDr was referring to a ticket issued in Wirral and I was answering him referring to the Wirral, these links are all for tickets in London.

Who gives a toss?

This thread is about someone losing their Toyota not about traffic wardens. At least they are working for a living, Jesus, can't win with you lot, one minute your moaning about people on the job house money and now your moaning about traffic wardens.

Wake up eh?
