Clamped? - What would you do? - Saraj - 02-08-2017

Been watching videos on Youtube about clampers and being clamped.

But what would you do??

I've always said if I got clamped in a cheap car like my astra, I would get my sister to bring her grinder, get one of those inverters and grind it off, and if the clamper wants to watch then so be it, ok its criminal damage but i would be soo peed off i probally do it lol

what about everyone else? would you pay up?

if i'm clamped cos i'm parked where i shouldn't be and there are signs to say so, then its my own fault, i'd pay it, but if its a busybody tryin to hit targets and makin reasons up to clamp me i'd be a little more barbaric about it

He means. If he say, parked on a pay and display carpark without a ticket, and got clamped OR parked infront of gates where it says "Do not park infront of these gates. Clamping is in progress" and got clamped, then he would be more than happy to pay.

But if he parked somewhere non-illegal, (or slightly, but with no warnings anywhere), he would be annoyed, as it will be some traffic warden who is just trying to do whatever he can to make money out of people.


A bit clearer?

use a big set of cutters or get skilled in the use of a bump key...... or a portable grinder is always an option
