Make parking charge notices illegal

Rejected 18 signatures

What the petition asks

Parking charges notices are designed to look like penalty notices. Big companies charging extortionate amounts that are unfair and unreasonable. Using scare tactics to get money out of people.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We're not sure whether you want to make the issuing of parking charge notices illegal, whether you would like them to be required not to look like penalty notices, or whether you would like the laws around what private parking companies can charge to be changed.
