🎥 WATCH: Croydon council painted a disabled bay around a man’s legally parked car, then gave him four parking tickets. The vehicle’s owner, who asked to remain anonymous, parked his Audi on an unrestricted road near his home in New Addington, south London, while on holiday in November. When he returned, he had received four penalty charge notices (PCNs). Croydon council “apologised for the confusion” and revoked the fines a week before the video was posted online. 🔗 Tap the link in the comment
