Summarised from Bournemouth Echo's report · Updated 9 Oct, 06:00 · Archive

A 25-year-old woman has been in an 11-month parking dispute after being fined for using her own allocated space with her grandmother's car.

Emily Harris, a 25-year-old lifeguard from Boscombe, has been in a parking dispute for nearly 11 months after being ticketed while using her grandmother's car in her own allocated space. Her original vehicle was hit by another car outside her flat on Crabton Close Road and was written off. She obtained CCTV footage from a nearby shop showing another vehicle hitting hers before driving away.

While arranging a replacement, Harris temporarily used her grandmother's car, which was not registered on the parking company's system for the space. She received her first ticket on 6 December and appealed the charge, but the appeal was rejected. Harris said she had explained the situation to a parking warden at the property, but her landlord told her they could not help resolve the matter.
