Does anybody know about parking in Tesco. I believe they cone an area off at the rear of the their carpark on match days.....is it open to the public or do you need a match day pass?

The coned off area is permit only.
All other areas is subject to a maximum stay of 70 minutes , stay longer and [size=150you will[/size get a hefty fine.

did you know that unless the fine is from the police or the council you don't have to pay it! they can only fine the driver, not the owner & have to be able to prove who parked it, by law you have no obligation to inform the enforcement company who was driving. my wife parked my car at a certain ten pin bowling establishment near where i live one day to collect the kids from school, there were no signs saying do not park, the place had closed down months before, i recieved a letter demanding £200 for parking there. i was out of the country at the time in perpignan watching the wire and informed them of the same. i also took some advice from a solicitor friend advising me as long as they cannot prove who was driving they don't have a leg to stand on! as i don't have to tell them who was driving.

now if they clamp you your fooked!

I work for Tesco but not in Warrington. But most Extra stores have the ability to clamp people wether they do it is another matter.

You take the risk you pay the fine if they clamp you.

Quite often in the store, the member of staff on customer service will read out a registration plate number/describe a car. I've always wondered why but I guess it's because of people exceeding the parking limit.

The biggest problem at Tesco, though, is by far their lack of shallow trollies. God damn you thieving scrappers!

You & me both mate, it annoys the hell out of me!

where is the best place to park at warrington ?

Re parking.. Who is managing the £4.00 parking on the site opposite to where KFC used to be?
Past few years it has been £2.00 or so to park during a game, now it's almost doubled during match times, but still cheapo during the day / non match days.

Thought it was 's chancing it at first but they don't appear to be going away.

Park in the £4car park buit get there abot 2 hrs before the game as they dont puty it up till then........
Mind you, an absolute bugger to get out of after the game....

I only used it once and swore never again as it took about 30 minutes to get out of the car park.
Plenty of side roads off Bewsey Road to park in.

but they have cctv of every car entering the car park and have signs up warning you so they can enforce it. I know as I work for Tesco and when visiting stores you exclude your car from cctv to avoid the fine.

so get some one else to drive your car! the store can retrieve your address from the dvla they cannot obtain the name of the driver.

I always park in the Multi storey on academy way opposite the market hall, by the time you've walked there after the game the traffic usually cleared up. Used to park there when we played at Wilderspool too, gives you time to calm down before driving too.

Asda. Free parking on Sundays. Barriers up for a Friday or Saturday night game.

Parking restriction finishes on car park opposite Central Station at 6.30 Mon to Sat so OK for friday night game. Free to park Sunday.

Also two free car parks up Orford Lane (one opposite The Hawthorn and the other near Irish Club)

They will fine you like companies get fined if company car drivers refuse to say it is them.

that's the point they can't. by law you don't have to disclose who was driving unless it's a police or parking warden ticket. as i stated before i have taken legal advice and avoided such payment. if i could be bothered i'd google it and find a link to martin money saving dot com which confirms same.

there you go pieman your full of sh.........!

Not at all fella, I stated what actually happens. You are just finding loopholes and trying to exploit them.

not a loop hole at all, you wuite clearly stated they would be able to track down the driver which clearly isn't true!

and what are loopholes for if not to exploit, your just pee'd off cause your team get caught for trying to break the rules rather than exploit loopholes!

again not at all. They arent breaking the rules in fact its the other way around. They have notices and you are choosing tom ignore them. I said they can and do chase the owned of the car which is correct.

now this is where you prove how stupid you truly are, you have agreed there is a loop hole in the system, i've given you evidence of this and yet you continue to argue for the sake of it! they cannot prosecute the owner of the car if he / she was not driving the car at the time of the offence... end of, no if buts or cheap crusty pies, there is no way they can do it by law. you may have been told something else but who ever told you is wrong. go back and check the link i posted earlier, read it properly (or get your mum to read it to you) then come back and apologise. (which you won't, you'll just come back without any proof claiming your right!)

oh i love the smell of a back tracking wigganer in the morning, it reminds me of victory!

So again I will put it in plain english for you and I can do it without insults. Its a civil case, you can fine the owner of the car. Its if the dispute it that the grey areas come out? Can you understand that now?

Slim. Technically you're right, but I would sooner back Pieman than you on this. If you want to cause yourself a shedfull of worry and hassle, and then drag a really minor matter through the courts, then it's up to you, but I would much rather take Pieman's attitude.
