why is it legal for someone to disable my car  :evil: went to weston recently and was 10 munits late back litrily ..clamped
im all for a parking ticket if your in the wrong but clamping is to harsh I had my new born baby screeming in my arms and only 20 pounds cash on me and no cards.

I had the clamp of just as he puled in behined me and blocked me in. the police was caled but I was told I was within my rights to do what I like to my car aslong as the clamp is not damaged so I will not wast any time geting the next one of if it hapends again.

the bill was 200 and I had to call round for someone to help me.

surly this cant go on what if It was an elderly person or something that needed to get home for medication or the like
I think the only people that should have clamping powers in the dvla

well I was just going to drive of and deal with it later as I was in no position to be paying 200 quid clamping fees. but as I was boxed in the only way out was to use my car as a ram lol :)

Yoshi:
Can i direct you to another website i use where there is plenty of legal bods and people who have the knowledge etc.........

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk

You will find a forum for your question in there and they are very helpful.

I say this as i do believe there are laws with regards to how long after a ticket expires before they can put a clamp on.

They tried to clamp me once, i cam back as they were struggling to get a clamp round a 35" tyre and i just laughed at them, got iin and drove off  :twisted: :lol:
