What's my worst case scenario?
Hi. I made the mistake of identifying myself as the driver. I am probably in breach of the rules (clear signs, etc.) but I've been pig-headed about this because (I'll save you the story) the fine is incredibly unfair and unreasonable given the circumstances. I'm currently ignoring the debt collector letters. My latest…
