Here in the UK we keep getting stories about people getting tickets in London.
Goes something like this. Driver parks in a kerbside parking area which requires a timed ticket. Goes over the road to the machine to get it, puts it in the car and goes off. Comes back to find they have been issued a parking fine. Turns out the two sides of the road are in different council districts and the ticket machine they should have used is not the one just 20 feet away but the one 100 yards down the road.
