For all parking disasters, not just simple bad parking (for that see yplac.co.uk).

Also includes "you can't park there, sir" for the police equivalent.

Rules:

No deaths or serious injuries because who would be around to get told they couldn't park there?

This reminds me of a story from years back where double yellows were being painted - it was either around cars, or they were moving the cars and painting underneath them.

Appealing the PCN after she was fined in August, Bread – who, on social media, hides her real identity behind a slice of bread – highlighted how a "lack of clear, visible signage" at the time she parked, combined with "long-standing prior practice" meant it was "reasonable to assume that parking remained permitted".

well I'm sold, what a story hook.

Wait till you get to the point where the council agreed, then realised it meant thousands of fines will get overturned, then disagreed again
