Driving wrong side of road in car park
Hi i was following road markings out a car park that was a little confusing to navigate. and got confused as to what lane i was in as i was just coming out of a one way system to a double lane with road markings missing. i just studiedly assumed it was still the one way and i was exciting the carpark and i realised i was on the wrong side as a car was trying to turn in from the road. Absolute idiot. I didn't crash and no one was affected by it just the guy had to wait for me to correct my mistake.
Can i get in trouble for this? it wasn't on a main road, it was still in this carpark and there was no one else driving about in the car park.

You should be fine if it's a private car park. It's hard for police to enforce any driving laws on private land.
