I fought the council and I won

A couple of months ago my new car was towed from where I’d left it, near work. The council said it was parked in a clearway, and wanted $120.

I disputed the ticket, arguing I was not parked in a clearway because there was no clearway sign. You could see where there used to be a clearway sign, but there wasn’t one any more - and I sent them photos to prove it (one of them is attached - note the gap above the 60 sign).

Cutting a long story short, the council have now backed down and waived the ticket - but somewhat stupidly have yet to replace the sign.

If I was of a more masochistic bent, I’d totally park there again tomorrow. But Tariqa would call that silly.
