Drivers to be able to pay for parking using just ONE app under new Government plans

  Time for another public app to not be open source and cost millions of £s in development again I imagine.

  The platform will work for all motorists, not just car users, and you’ll be able to use it both private AND council-run car parks – provided operators sign up to it.

  Hmm.

      Didn’t even have to click it to know which one that was! Perfect example

    If they don’t sign up to it, make it so they can’t fine anyone or query the DVLA for vehicle details.

  Now make it so they have to tell you the charges in the app through a message sent direct to your phone, so you don’t have to get out and squint at a tiny sign.

  e.g. You have entered Customer Car Park. 90 minutes of parking is free, then a fine of £60 will be issued.

  Always give time (say 10 mins) to read the conditions and exit if you refuse them.

  If ANPR systems are going to take all the fun out of life, we might as well get the benefits it could provide, rather than getting mystery envelopes with random fines because of piss-poor signage.

  Now if they could just sort out the lack of mobile signals in car parks in rural areas, or allow us to pay once we get home….
