Driver given car park fine 'only stayed long enough to read the rules before leaving'

A man has hit out at "parking scammers" after being handed a fine despite having evidence that he was only in the car park for a matter of minutes and never even entered a space.

Jed Dalton has accused I Park Services of attempting to "bully" him into paying a debt he believes he doesn't owe after he was slapped with a Parking Charge Notice after spending just three minutes in one of their car parks.

He's since incurred thousands of pounds in costs trying to fight the fine and has had a county court judgement filed against his name but says he would rather go to prison than pay any money "on the point of principle".
