What do you think of new clamping rules?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Hi neighbours, plans to introduce a maximum wheel clamp removal fee of $100 have been announced. This comes after complaints against "predatory" clampers but an AA spokesman said the $100 fine was disproportionate for many parking offences. What do you think?

Under the proposed legislation, police will be given the power to fine individual clampers up to $1000 and a company up to $5000 for breaking the rules. These fines increased to $3000 and $15,000 respectively if the matter ended up in court. Read the full story here.
