Dont worry so much, leh. It wont be a death sentence. Max to Max you will get a love letter asking you to pay less than 200$ fine. If you can afford a car you can jolly well afford the fine so just chillGlobal Player wrote: In gerneral, is there anything to expect if they note down your car ID?

Ya know, it really depends on the severity of the offense. If someone is temporarily parked on a double yellow line, and traffic is not impeded, then who needs a self appointed parking nazi with a mobile phone camera to turn in the 'offender'?x9200 wrote:If you park like an a****l being a problem for other people you should be reported.

There are I think only two cases where I am very tempted or actually do the reporting. If somebody parks:Strong Eagle wrote:Ya know, it really depends on the severity of the offense.

On the other hand, if traffic is blocked, or the flow is impeded, then auch action would be warranted... like people parking on narrow roads forcing traffic into the other lane.
I'd add... parking in the motorcycle lots.x9200 wrote:There are I think only two cases where I am very tempted or actually do the reporting.

- completely blocking the pedestrians walkway - I did not realize how many a*ls are around till I had a kid and started walking with a pram.
- parking in the handicapped lot
Just to be devils advocate, I don't do this, but why shouldn't a guy in a 7 seater car with 7 people in it park in 6 motorcycle bays? What good reason is there othert ahn the fact "it's allocated to motor cycles" it's utilising the same space as motorbikes holding potentially fewer people?Strong Eagle wrote:I'd add... parking in the motorcycle lots.
because a 7 seater can carry 7 person or 1 person, unlike 6 bikes, which must carry 6 pax minimum ? oh wait, 6 bikes X 2 occupants = 12 .. well, Bikes do deserve their own parking ...nutnut wrote: Just to be devils advocate, I don't do this, but why shouldn't a guy in a 7 seater car with 7 people in it park in 6 motorcycle bays?

I have seen motorcycles parked in car lots before also.
