Private Parking Ticket Shock | Christchurch News

A Christchurch driver got nailed with a $95 ticket for parking just three minutes over a 90-minute limit—caught on camera, no mercy. But here’s the twist: the private parking code actually recommends a 10-minute grace period and urges operators to help drivers understand the rules. These companies can’t call it a “fine”—it’s a “parking breach notice.” If you think you’re being treated unfairly, you can appeal with proof like entry/exit times. This case is a wake-up call: read the signs, know your rights, and don’t assume private parking rules are set in stone.
