A foot wrong? Marc Murphy shows how far his car was jutting out when he got a ticket. Picture: ROB SAMBROOK (52606-1)
A couple are furious after getting a parking ticket - for parking in their own driveway.
Marc Murphy and Noreen McEneany parked as normal at their home in Alexandra Road, Colchester. That didn't stop traffic wardens slapping a £30 fine on their car.
Mr Murphy said: "Our car was on our own drive, but they reckon the boot was overhanging the double yellow lines so we got a ticket."
Mr Murphy, 41, appealed against the fine but the authorities are sticking to their guns.
