I love this story

The last couple of days a local news story has surfaced that is just so ridiculous it has to be true. I clipped the following from here.

Yellow line painted under parked car 

A driver got a £120 parking ticket after council workers painted a yellow line under his car.

Daniel Jacob, a 26-year-old bus driver from Basildon, left his Renault Megane parked in a residential street in Upminster while he went to work.

He said: “I couldn't believe it when I returned to find someone had got on their hands and knees and painted under my car. It's not even straight, it's a wobbly scrawl.”

A spokeswoman for Havering council said: “We will of course cancel this ticket.”
