PARKING TRAP
While in New Zealand a motorist can assume it is free to park unless he sees a collection of N.P. signs, but in London a New Zealand motorist will find there are few such signs and quickly fall into parking traps. “I always understood it was in order to park unless there w,as a sign to the contrary,” said a parking offender . prosecuted at the Guildhall in London recently. “The position is just the opposite,” replied the Magistrate. He went on to tell the offender that parking was not permitted anywhere unless there was actually a sign telling him he could park. An almost complete reversal of the New Zealand scene.
