Sorry, The Fine Has Been Written Off

Er, The Car’s A Write-Off Too

A British motorist was given a $100 ticket for bad parking when her car was shunted into a tree by another driver. The 27-year-old was fined by an overzealous traffic warden after her Ford Ka, which she'd left parked, was hit by another driver. "I was absolutely devastated," she said - but an Oldham Council spokesman said the penalty had since been written off.

FOOTNOTE: It happened by accident.

Have you driven a Ford lately? Someone did...into a tree...with their car.

I once hit a car that was illegally parked--that I couldn't see because it was illegally parked--and had no such luck. I had to pay for the repairs to said car.
