In Italy lately everything is happening, even with regards to guarded and non-guarded parking, there is a lot to say. What follows is what was highlighted during a service of the transmission Mi manda Raitre.
In the service the journalist shows a car left in a private parking lot in Rome Prati district via Silvio Pellico.
The vehicle is immediately moved after and left outside the parking lot. It is left parked directly on the strips, hindering traffic. Obviously the inevitable consequence is the arrival of hefty fines to the annoyed owner.
This is what the Mi Manda rai 3 service is about
The service in question will be broadcast on October 15 and will go to unmask a mechanism of scams very serious on guarded parking. The reporter tried to set a trap, in which the owner of the parking lot fell.
users bait, they leave the car keys with the owner. Inside the car, there are hidden cameras, after the owners communicate to return to pick up the car at 7pm, something incredible happens.
As soon as the customers leave, the owner of the car park takes the keys, gets into the car and parks it outside, on the crosswalks going to block traffic. At this point, the owners go back in advance and ask the valet where their car is.
The caretaker is obviously taken aback as the car is not there. They are immediately taken to where the car has been parked and obviously ask why it has been moved and placed where it couldn’t be. He replies that he had to park it outside, to let another car pass. From there it turns out that it is a trap and that the owners of the car are actually actors.
The owner of the private parking has distrusted the transmission, that’s why
At the end of this story the parking owner distrusts the transmission and claims that these are normal practices in any private car park in the world. That the holders have the right to move the customers’ cars at any time, according to the needs or the situation, if this requires it. Perhaps this is true, but one might have a thing to say about where the car is parked.
It certainly can happen that the owner needs to move the cars, but you need to make sure you do it safely and for a good reason. In any case, those who fell into the trap discovered the scam only after having received the fine directly at home for having obstructed traffic or for having parked, indeed not parked, on the no-parking ban.
