Any comments?


Yes, work for Ocado instead.



For this reason, I refuse to render assistance or aid to anyone
within the bounds of London since my act of humanity and charity
will result in unnecessary legal proceedings against me


Only if you break the law in doing so.

by the authorities I am supposedly doing a service for.


No, you would doing a service for the person who needs help.

It is a good point that you have raised. However, it does appear that
delivery vehicles are deliberately 'targeted' as (in my case) the company,
rather than the driver pays the fine.


Or perhaps they appear to be "targetted" because they park incorrectly
more often and so *deserve* more tickets. Unfortunately the fines don't
appear to be high enough, as I see the same trucks making the same
deliveries week after week, each time with a parking ticket on them.

It would all be fixed by my fine idea of putting fork lifts on the front
of bendy buses and using them to stab into the offending vehicles and
lift them onto the bus roof.
