UK ends five-minute rule for private parking payments, aiming to prevent excessive fines.
Effective February 17, 2025, the UK will remove the controversial five-minute rule for private parking payments to prevent unfair penalties.
The change, implemented by the Private Parking Scrutiny and Advice Panel, applies to sites using ANPR or CCTV cameras but not to local authority or private car parks without such technology.
The move follows public outcry over a £1,906 fine due to a late payment.
While the British Parking Association praises the update, motoring groups seek a government-backed code of practice for broader fairness.
