Driving wrong way in supermarket car park

Today by accident I was in Tesco and accidentally drove the wrong way down one of the "one way" lanes. It was too late by time I pulled out of space to rectify and so I continued to drive down the wrong way and then pulled out at the end.
There are cameras everywhere in the car park, could I get a ticket for this?

And if you did, it would not be enforceable and could be ignored as it would be from one of the PPCs, thieving, intimidating creatures that they are.0

no I regularly use the Bus Lane entrance to the local asda (if there are no buses using the lane and its very easy to spot them). Its much quicker than joining the indecisive customers in the main entrance.0

Damn it we were doing so well with the ultra-concise one-word replies...

If they laid out the parking spaces in a herring bone pattern then this wouldn't happen. Don't worry about it, I never notice the arrows much these days.0

I did this...I couldn't even see the arrows (faded paint-unknown car park to me) until I was most of the way down the lane then some ... tries to crash head on into me on purpose. Who cares...it's just a car park.:footie:

I generally ignore supermarket directions and no entry signs - I will use the best routes for my exit possible as long as I do not interfere with incoming vehicles.
There is no way I am driving through a car park, around several rows, up and down them etc instead of simply driving directly out of there just because of an arrow painted on the floor.
At our local supermarket we also have an imitation box junction (painted in white) that can be ignored too.
I laugh in the face of any attempt at making me run the rat run.0 -
I did this at the local retail park last month, I followed another car into the carpark and then realised i'd followed an idiot.....
Other car parks up, taxi driver comes the other way, starts flashing his lights and gesturing at me, I wind the window down and say "sorry pal, I don't normally park here and I followed THIS IDIOT into the car park!!" as I glance over at the stupid cow locking her car less than 6ft away.......
Camera's everywhere, never heard a thing.“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”
