Keeping Hull Moving

The owner of this car is in for a shock when he/she returns. A civil enforcement officer has spotted an alleged infringement and is issuing a penalty charge notice. I think it must be the uniform that attracts this kind of officious person, before this he'd taken 3 or 4 photos as evidence of the alleged offence. I bet he enjoys his work and the uniform that goes with it.

According to Hull City Council civil parking enforcement will "encourage correct, sensible and safe parking in Hull" and "keep Hull moving". "CPE will improve parking by ensuring that parking bays are not abused ..."
As you will have noticed this car is clearly abusing the parking bay (simply by being in it?) and hindering traffic ( it's tyre is a whole inch over the line!) and is parked so badly as to cause Hull to grind to a halt (allegedly).

I'm not a driver and so the parking regulations do not affect me personally but I cannot see how jumping on each and every minor infringement is going to achieve improved parking. It just becomes a money making scheme (up to £70 for an offence) and brings the whole scheme nothing but disrepute.
