Poll: Should a parking ticket be waived if the sign is hidden by trees?
Hi neighbours. Janelle Wills was given a $113 parking ticket for parking in an operational clearway on Glenfield's Chartwell Ave, but she thinks the fine should be waived because the sign with the parking restrictions was hidden by low hanging trees.
After she complained to Auckland Transport, the trees were "severely" trimmed to reveal the sign.
Auckland Transport said it was the responsibility of the driver to check for parking restrictions, and motorists should walk up to road signs if they have trouble reading them.
What do you think? Should a parking fine be waived if the relevant signage is hidden by trees? Vote in our poll or let us know in the comments.

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
36.7% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
63.3% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
