Suppose it could be argued that you are covering 3 spaces whereas if you park over 2 spaces( one in front of the other) as you would with the motorhome you are showing a bit of consideration for other shoppers. I have parked in many supermarket carparks over the last 20 years and never had a problem.I received a 'fine' from Horizon parking who manage the parking at our local Tesco. I wasn't in the motorhome at the time but it just got me thinking about parking the motorhome there as I often do this on trips.
Basically I was 'fined' for 'not parking within a marked bay.' on this occasion my excuse was there are some barriers up so the marked bays are not long enough for safe parking. Me and several others parked longways across the bays instead. I went back and people were still doing this (no temporary signs saying not to). Horizon making a mint out of Tesco customers in this particular situation then.
Anyway, on a more general note - anyone been 'fined' in a supermarket for parking a motorhome a across 2 or more bays?
Would be interested in any thoughts about how to approach this particular situation too!
