Parking Note the difference between stopping and parking.
Read time limits - and respect them. Unlawful parking can at worst lead to police towing your car away, in which case you will have to pay towing charges, garage fee and possibly a fine. Inside these areas payment for parking using car park tickets is obligatory. Tickets are acquired at special streetside automatic coin-operated parkomats. Car parking tickets should be displayed on inside left windscreen ledge easily visible to traffic wardens.
