An Audi driver was caught parking just off the M56 on a hard shoulder ‘waiting for a relative to land’ at Manchester Airport in a desperate and dangerous attempt to dodge a £6 parking fee.
One driver pulled over on the A555 to park up there on the hard shoulder and pick up a relative who was due to land at Manchester Airport yesterday.
But traffic officers spotted them and issued them with a penalty notice - far more expensive than the £6 pick up fee they had tried so hard to evade, The Manchester Evening News reported.
