Are Parking Companies Committing Fraud?

"Double dipping" seems to have been a recognised problem for over a decade now so presumably all experienced car park operators using ANPR must be aware of it. Section 2 of the Fraud Act 2006 states that if…

This charge was for staying a whole 10 minutes and 34 seconds in a car park that only shows signs for 24 hour parking charges. After seeing that, I left, but not before another vehicle prevented me from leaving. It…
