| BBCtv Watchdog reports that only 1% off tickets issued are challenged but over 50% of tickets issued may not be legal. Problem is very few do anything about it which is precisely why authorities carry on with such scams. There are legal issues with signage, equipment, staff presentation ( if a warden does not reveal his or her face it is illegal to enforce just the same as a police traffic officer has to wear his hat to issue a penalty. road markings and sign positioning. But the sums add up in the favour of the contract holder/ authority as just 1% of fines are refunded or rescinded. |
