Default Lordship Lane N17 (and N22) - £3M in fines in one year!

According to the free London papers, Haringey council picked up over
£3 million in fines from parking offences, bus-lane offences and
box-junction offences in Lordship Lane alone in the period of
2004-2005.


What the article failed to point out was that Haringey council would
have made exactly £0 if all the drivers had actually obeyed the rules.
Councils can't use cameras as revenue-raisers unless drivers let them.
