A woman was hit with a £100 fine while waiting for an AA repair van to arrive.
Mum-of-three Sue Connerty was waiting for her electric car to charge at the Central Square car park in Maghull on February 26.
She had taken her disabled son, Alex, to get a coffee and while there she decided to kill two birds with one stone and charge her car. When she returned to her MG electric car, Sue could not detach the charging cord which was stuck in the car.
