I felt sorry for these two MHs parked in a car park in Saundersfoot today who were issued with parking tickets.

Pembrokeshire County Council needs to wake up and sort out more MH parking bays.

I wonder if they ticket cars that park up in the larger bays up in the corner. Cant remember if they are marked motorhome, but mostly cars when i'm there.

Why feel sorry for them unless they were parked properly / within time limits etc etc? Do we know?

As a coach driver I wouldn't share your sympathy, difficult enough to find anywhere to park a coach in the first place without the only spaces in town taken up by those who don't read or don't care. Finding space for 12/13m is a lot more difficult than 7/8m.

Park inconsiderate and expect a ticket as for cars taking up motorhom space contact the local authorities and eventually thay will send someone round
The reson motorhom camper cans are being targeted is the tossers who don’t give a bit of concern for any one but there shelf’s
Park wrong and get a ticket.

A better question would be to add " and would feel hard done by if given a ticket". I have parked in coach bays usually when there's nowhere else and lots of empty coach bays and we're only stopping a few minutes. Also quite often when there another motorhome already in it and we share the bay. If I get a ticket it's fair enough I'm risking it being there.

Some coach bays are signed as being ok for campers.
There is widespread abuse of parking restrictions in this country. Motorway truck and caravan stops for one!
No, I would not do it.
It gets me going!
And if I can’t stop, I can’t stop!

What do I need anyway?
There is always a lay by somewhere.

That's the point, if someone parks somewhere where it says you can't why are they surprised when they get a fine.

Motor homing is a privilege I enjoy it not a right but a privilege.
You don’t have the right to park where you like
You on very few occasions are given the privilege.
By the authority’s to park it not a right and thay have the right to withdraw if at anytime
