    Don't park where they can ticket you, that'll really wind them up.

    I do it by parking legally and depriving them of a hard on as they can't ticket my car.

    Low life scum claim to hate the police, see any similarities?

    Why do they want to hear your pitiful excuses as to why you shouldn't be ticketed? In any event it is probably the 34th time that day someone has said the same thing. I wonder how polite you are when you seek clarification or make your whining excuse? That could explain the lack of desire to hear more on the part of the warden.

    Buy an M3 so they're jealous when ticketing you.

    Wait till they walk past a puddle on the road and zoom through it?
    Talk to them for AGESSSS so they cant walk around finding other people to ticket?

    Alternatively, park where you should be parking and not where there are 2 yellow lines.

    1) They hate you too!
    2) Once they've given you a ticket, it's done - what do you want from them?
    3) If you're going to be a **** to them why would they want to hang around?
    4) They're doing a job. If you want to get your own back, you want to take on the parking department instead. Get smart, find a technicality and get your ticket quashed and then get thousands of others refunded for the same offence in the same place for the same restriction. THAT is how you get your own back on them.

    If you can't be bothered with the advice in 4 then give up and accept that you are a chav.

    You don't have to explain anything to the traffic officers. Make an appeal if you think the ticket was issued wrongly. The traffic officer is doing their job well.
