A DRIVER who wrapped his car around a bollard was hit with a £100 parking fine while waiting for help.
Jeremy Rabinovitch was issued with the penalty notice for incorrect parking after leaving his Hyundai i10 hatchback wedged on the concrete pillar.
Jeremy Rabinovitch was hit with a £100 parking fine while waiting for help after crashing into a bollard The penalty notice for incorrect parking came after Jeremy left his Hyundai i10 hatchback wedged on the concrete pillarJeremy Rabinovitch Peter JordanJeremy waited six hours for help[/caption]He had been sitting in the car for six hours waiting for a tow truck when the motor was caught on camera outside a bay.
Jeremy, 48, said: “Thankfully, I was unhurt, but there is no way they knew that.
“The thing that shocked me was the inhumanity of it.
“Did it ever occur to them to ask if I was OK?”
The NHS apprentice manager hit the post when he was caught in the glare of another vehicle in a commuter car park near Edgware Tube Station, North London, at 6am on April 9.
Despite doing only 5mph, dad-of-two Jeremy says the post proved too firmly embedded to free his car and he had to wait for help.
It meant Jeremy missed an important meeting with his team, which sources apprentices for St Guy’s and St George’s hospital.
And he was angered when he received the penalty notice about a week later.
Jeremy, from Borehamwood, Herts, appealed the charge and received a brusque, three- sentence letter informing him he no longer needed to pay.
He said: “I was livid when I received that letter.
“It was just robotic, no apology, nothing. What has the world come to?”
Jeremy remains annoyed neither the parking enforcement company nor passers-by showed him any understanding.
He said: “I could have been concussed, anything.
“Two people in six hours stopped to check if I was OK, out of the hundreds that slowed to ogle the scene. A couple even laughed.”
UK Parking Control, which issued the fine, was asked to comment.
