Disabled woman handed £200 parking fine after falling on way back to car

A woman who was handed a parking fine after falling and not returning to her car on time claims that such charges unfairly punish disabled people.

Jeanne was just 16 minutes late getting back to her vehicle at Kingston Shopping Centre car park in Hull last September - resulting in an immediate £100 fine, Hull Live reports.

She tried to appeal to the charge from Smart Parking as she had taken a tumble while walking to her vehicle which slowed her down, before having to wait a while to drive due to a heart condition.
