These motorists received the best possible PV!

In Toulouse, motorists had an astonishing surprise after having parked badly. They received a PV at a very low amount!

We’ve all had the experience of parking the wrong place or forgetting to move our car before the end of payment. A few years ago, it was possible to count on our luck and on the absence of the police to verbalize us. But in recent years, the big cities have set up automated checks, which makes things a bit more complicated. There is no longer any question of forgetting or cheating, because it can be very expensive. Indeed, the amount of the fine, which has become a FPS “post-parking package” is now higher than the initial 17 euros.

Heavy and super bulky, SUVs go against the city’s adaptation to climate change. They are aberrant in a city like Paris.

An astonishing PV

Currently, it takes on average between 35 and 50 euros for parking overrun. Suffice to say that all drivers dread receiving a ticket, because it can quickly weigh on finances. But sometimes there are still good surprises. This is precisely the case of these badly parked motorists in Toulouse, who were quite lucky. Several have indeed left their car without paying long enough and have obviously received a fine. But what was their surprise when they opened the mail. Indeed, the amount indicated was only 0.01 euro instead of 30 euros.

A little subtlety

A situation that can make you smile, if the document was not 4 pages long, when the city has just made paid parking in the name of the fight against pollution. However, the matter could have ended there. Except that the municipality now wants to recover its money and intends to do so. If the town hall recognizes an error, it explains however that ” the people who received this FPS of €0.01 were in a situation of non-payment or overtime. They will receive, in the coming days, a fix with an FPS at 30 €« .
