If you think our police and local authority enforcement officers are strict, wait till you see how they do things in London.
Apparently the police there are using cars that park without proper payment or permit as goldmine for extra income and one particular street has collected nearly GBP1 million in fines and it is barely one kilometre long.
Londoners are making noise about this draconian act against indiscriminate parkers but so far their laments have fallen on deaf ears
