It is the basis of the general advice to ‘pay or challenge’.<br /> <br />If a motorist pays by mistake they must take this up with the operator. This, too, is established practice which has not changed.<br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050188067980163727.post-37023108404544276322013-08-07T01:09:58.953-07:002013-08-07T01:09:58.953-07:00What do you expect?
