10 parking fines issued every minute in the UK as councils increase restrictions

Nicholas Mantel, Head of Churchill Motor Insurance, said: “Parking is one of the most stressful aspects of driving, especially for families, who are often stretched for time and who don’t want their car too far from their ultimate destination.

“It is becoming increasingly difficult for motorists in towns and cities across Britain to find spots to park, especially for free, as local authorities seek to reduce congestion and put ever more controls in place.

One Twitter user, Alex Evans, said the high cost of parking tickets was “destroying businesses”.

They continued: “One of my issues with parking for instance is the destruction of town centres because the council would rather make a bit of money through tickets.”
