The Problem with ANPR Car Parks
Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras are everywhere. They log your entry and exit times down to the second. If you overstay by even a few minutes, a fine is automatically generated and sent to your home. It's efficient for operators, but stressful for drivers.
Did you know?
Private parking firms issue thousands of tickets every day in the UK. Many of these are due to simple forgetfulness or losing track of time.
3 Simple Ways to Avoid Fines
Set a Phone Alarm
It sounds basic, but manually setting an alarm on your phone as soon as you park is effective—if you remember to do it.
Check Signage Carefully
Always read the terms. Some car parks have "no return within X hours" rules or obscure payment requirements.
Use a Geofencing App like Get Stung
