I have, several times. For being a few mins over a two hour stay at a McDonalds (attending a party there!); for accidentally not paying-and-displaying at a supermarket, and my mother has for parking in a disabled with her badge not showing clearly (it fell down behind the dash). Ignore all, ignore all follow-up letters and don't ever attempt to contact them as they'll sniff a lead and keep bothering.

You must pay: parking 'fines' from councils, Network Rail car parks, police tickets (but you should appeal if you think you've being unfairly ticketed) You should bin: parking 'charges' from shopping centres, McDonald's, motorway services, supermarkets, basically anything from companies called 'Parking Eye' or 'Euro Parking' or similar. And bin the follow-up 'demands' from debt collectors, usually with the same PO Box as the original charge.

It's not a fine, it's a charge. You don't have to pay it, just bin it. Look up private parking charges online.

I cross diagonally there anyway

Shame. Looks like a great family home.

Using red tarmac and removing all white lines has been proven as an effective way of calming traffic. http://www.brake.org.uk/info-resources/info-research/road-safety-factsheets/15-facts-a-resources/facts/472-naked-roads

I followed a Peugeot estate that cut the existing corner and would've scraped the bollard, had it been there. It's just poor road design.

It takes days for the concrete to go off, but should cure the problem of 'tramlining' where buses create two deep tracks in the surface which are a nightmare for thin bike and car tyres. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=47

Or just put the road back to how it was

Down again on Monday, up on Tuesday and now down again, completely ripped out. Must be skip lorries or refuse trucks to do that.

Or turn left down Crawthew and then right onto Worlingham then right onto ED Road. It's no right turn out of CP road because there's no room for cars to pass on the left when cars are waiting to turn right (but not out of Adys road, for some reason)

Isn't there a clothes/cloth bank at Sainsbury's DKH?

It's untaxed too

It's probably one of FM Conway's transit vans

Hilarious. Put the kerb back where it was, and it'll never happen again, people will stand on the old pavement, rather than a metre into the middle of Nutbrook Street and van drivers won't roar up Adys Road, seething after realising they've smashed the company truck up.

The definition of madness is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. It's what came to mind when I noticed that for about the fifth time in six months the bollard on the corner of these streets has been replaced after being knocked over. There's a new one there tonight, nice and upright with a fresh lick of black paint, solid in its Tarmac base. But I guarantee that within a fortnight it'll be scuffed with Transit van-white paint and leaning precariously before finally being uprooted. Can I suggest one of those bell-shaped cast iron blobs? Or - more radical - re-align the mouth of the junction to how the Victorians had it?

If only TfL would put out ads to this affect

Up and down Dog Kennel Hill. The bus lane on the down side was relaid a couple of years ago and was worse than the crumbling mess it replaced. Dangerous.

Thought as much, although there doesn't appear to be much damage. He might want to move it before the fines amount to more than the bike's worth.

It doesn't bother me that it's there, but it might bother the keeper if they mount up a load of fines.

At the junction of Adys Road and East Dulwich Road. Don't know whether it's been left there after an accident, or stolen and abandoned, or just broken down, but if you're the owner, you should know that it's starting to attract parking tickets.

What car is it?

If it's on their premises, as opposed to on the public highway, just bin it. It's not a fine, it's effectively an invoice. Ignore it.

I agree. All that cast-iron must've succumbed to rust then. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2633774
