The Parking Association believes multiple changes are needed for chasing up unpaid fines. In the three years to the end of 2024, just 68% of almost $29 thousand Auckland Transport fines were paid in part or in full. While AT says it's not a straightforward process, Auckland Mayor Wayne Brown says he's asked for advice on making them better debt collectors. Association chair Mike Kelly told Mike Hosking the psychology around it is one major issue. He says there are lots of people who get tickets daily for repetitive offences and aren't too bothered, and the tickets end up with the Ministry of Justice.

Steve Caplin delves into the world of tech. Virgin expects to have an eVTOL air taxi service in the UK relatively soon. In San Francisco, driverless cars got 600 parking tickets last year. AI apparently can't tell analogue time or interpret calendars. Gravity batteries could be used in the lift shafts of abandoned mines. The Chinese company BYD has developed batteries that can add 250 miles range in 5 minutes. Longbow is the first British electric sports car manufacturer, while Volkswagen has an entry-level eCar for just €20,000. And there are two intriguing ways of getting hydration while on the move.

Increased fines and even penalty points are being tipped as potential solutions to stop motorists illegally parking in Clare's disabled bays. Although the total number of parking fines issued countywide dropped by a third last year, the number of fixed charged notices for parking in a disabled bay without a valid permit went up by more than 9% in Ennis alone. It was also the most common offence in Kilrush accounting for one in three fines there last year. Clare FM's Daragh Dolan has been speaking to business owners and the Clare Leader Forum about the parking matter, but began with Kilrush Independent Councillor Ian Lynch. Photo(C): Clare FM

If you were in a bit of a rush yesterday morning, I dunno - perhaps somehow you were caught out by daylight saving and you scrambling to get to an appointment - and you forgot to put money in the meter before rushing off, you'd have been fined $40. If you did it today, exactly the same offence, you'd be fined $70. Almost double. Parking fines are up for the first time in twenty years and errant parkers will be facing stricter penalties across the board. I don't have an issue with the higher fines. If you don't want to be fined, pay for your parking. It's pretty simple. But despite supporting higher fines, Auckland Mayor Wayne Brown isn't happy with the regime. He takes issue with the fact that fines are still set by central Government under the Land Transport Act, rather than local councils. I think he's got a good point. It seems absurd to me that for all the talk about localism, councils are still relying on an edict from Wellington to set their parking fines. If a council can't be relied on to set appropriate parking fines, how on Earth can expect it to manage a balance sheet, consenting or complex infrastructure planning? And Wayne Brown's quite right - there's no reason that fines in congested city centres should be the same as parking fines on the main street of a regional town. Central government says it wants local councils to be focused on the basics. Setting the parking fines within its own jurisdiction qualifies as a basic, for me.

Can you imagine racking up $17,000 dollar worth of parking tickets in just 6 months, then taking eight years to pay them off? That is the expensive lesson learnt by former Auckland resident Todd Fisher, who played parking roulette and lost. Todd Fisher speaks to Lisa Owen.

A lawyer says it would be useful to have a look at regulations around parking fines. Some concert goers at a Foo Fighters show in Auckland were left hundreds of dollars out of pocket after a parking scam led to them being towed. Clifton Chambers Barrister Ben Hamlin says people will have to pay the fee, but they can raise a dispute after the fact around if the fee was reasonable. He told Tim Dower that there's room for reform. Hamlin says there should be a maximum fee for private towing, same as there is for public carparks.

A storm's brewing over a Bay of Plenty Coffee cart and some instant parking tickets. The drive through coffee shop is on a lot behind a service station at Tauriko on State Highway 29 just out of Tauranga. The Bean n Gone cart owner apparently leases the site and uses another company to police the parking. Painter Peter Wise pulled into get a couple of takeaway coffees, pausing long enough for his workmate to hop in the van. It turned out to be one of the most expnesive caffeine hits in the bay. The nasty aftertaste kicking in about a week later when he got a ticket in the mail. Paul Marston from Tauranga Tasting Tours believes it's just a massive money spinner. One of his drivers got pinged when he stopped on the lot to pick up a passenger. He reckons the signs posted by Parking Services Limited are small and obscured and the fines are grande. Daniel Haines owns Driven Auto, it neighbours the Bean n Gone lot. He noticed a camera go up on a pole several weeks back Daniel says annoyingly some people do block the coffee drive through and that is not on. But most genuinely mistake the site for a parking lot and he is frequently warning people to steer clear. Checkpoint contacted Parking Services Limited boss, Jacob Thomas. He declined to be interviewed, asked Checkpoint to email him questions and then hung up. Checkpoint emailed him, asking questions about his signage, what he defines as parking, the number of tickets he's issued, what constitutes a fair fine and how much he is adding on for late payments. We are yet to receive a response. Checkpoint has also contacted the owner of the property occupied by the coffee cart and Gull Service station.

Parking your car in the street might not be the best idea, particularly if you live in Sydney, Canberra or Perth. This is because scientists say there's been a 40 per cent increase in hailstorms in some heavily populated parts of Australia over the past 40 years. And they've also found the number of hail-prone days have decreased across much of the country. - اپنی کار کو سڑک یا کھلی جگہ پر پارک کرنا شاید بہترین خیال نہ ہو، خاص طور پر اگر آپ سڈنی، کینبرا یا پرتھ میں رہتے ہیں۔ اس کی وجہ یہ ہے کہ سائنسدانوں کا کہنا ہے کہ گزشتہ 40 سالوں میں گرچہ ملک کے بیشتر حصوں میں اولے پڑنے والے دنوں کی تعداد میں کمی آئی ہے مگر آسٹریلیا کے کچھ گنجان آبادی والے علاقوں میں ژالہ باری میں 40 فیصد اضافہ ہوا ہے۔

It's time to ramp up fines for overstayers in Auckland street parks according to the city's transport agency. Central government sets the fines, but they haven't gone up in close to a quarter of a century. Auckland transport says that means in some cases it's cheaper for a motorist to park up for the whole day and just cop the ticket. Mayor Wayne Brown spoke to Lisa Owen.
