So I got a parking ticket for parking at my uni hall. I usually park my car at an non restricted road around a mile away from my hall to avoid this. This time I went grocery shopping and I came back at around 8pm. I wasn't too keen on taking my car back to that road and then walking back to my hall in pitch dark, so I thought, surely they don't check at night, like who would be bothered to do that. Turns out they are a lot more anal about their parking than I thought. I got a ticket, and the time says 3:32am. I hope this person is payed enough for walking around car parks and giving people tickets in the middle of the night.
The whole thing is £100, £50 for not having a permit, and £50 for parking overnight.
I'm not gonna argue my way out of this. There is no point. All I want to know is if I can just ignore it. Its issued by the university itself, and I heard that the only ones you don't ignore are council and police issued tickets. It also says they will make me pay if they have to buy my details from DVLA, and that if I don't pay in 20 days, the ticket will become a debt, whatever that means.
