2 out of 5 stars usual nonsense   January 28, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Whilst this book is amusing , it was disappointing that there was insufficient legal background . Though some italicised notes were made, more were needed. It is curious that NPAS was not mentioned at all. And I note that the web site has no downloadable standard appeal letter, unless one pays for it.


5 out of 5 stars Informative & funny - a great book!   December 4, 2007
The true stories in "The Parking Ticket Awards" will leave you open-mouthed in disbelief and chuckling out loud. Not only is it a really funny read but it is also an extremely informative one and shows how anyone can fight an unfair parking ticket. Barrie Segal clearly knows his stuff and this book contains a wealth of little gems. Highly recommended.

This book will bring a smile to your face, tears of laughter to your eyes and nods of your head if you've ever parked a car or had to deal with government bureaucracy of any kind. A wonderful gift.


5 out of 5 stars What a mad World!   December 1, 2007
Having read the book through I found it to be extremely amusing and also enlightening!
It seemed a very well researched book and I look forward to Volume 2!



5 out of 5 stars A Great Christmas Read   November 30, 2007

If you want something to keep you laughing through the long dark days between Christmas and New year, buy this great book. I couldn't believe the lengths traffic wardens will go to to issue tickets. I really enjoyed the way it's been presented. You can dip in and out at will and I often found myself laughing out loud. I saw Barrie Segal on the Richard and Judy show which is what prompted me to buy the book and I'm glad I did.
