Cambridge Previsited.

Travel Classic administrative anomaly:
"Some shoppers in Cambridge are finding it cheaper to park illegally in the city centre and pay a fine than to use an official car park, it is claimed.

"The cost of parking in the Grand Arcade shopping centre on Saturdays, over five hours, costs £26 from 0900 to 1700.

"Parking fines are £50, but can be reduced by half if paid within 14 days, making it cheaper for shoppers by £1."
Obviously I'm showing my public transport credentials, but aren't there any other sanctions with a parking fine? Points on a license that sort of thing?
