Parking app will pay busybody snoopers a TENNER to snap photos of illegally parked cars on their smartphone

Anyone unlucky enough to be caught by UK Car Park Management's amateur traffic wardens will be hit with a HUGE fine

AN UNPOPULAR British parking firm has released an app designed to turn ordinary people into traffic wardens.

A company called UK Car Park Management has offered people a bounty of £10 if they use its app to grass up people who are parked illegally.

: “The problem is not with the app but with drivers that do not respect people’s land.

“The photo uploaded to the app is just the evidence and every one is looked at by a member of staff before a ticket is printed.”

CARMAGEDDON: Here's what UK Parking Car Park Management says about the app

"Not only is the service free, you even receive £10 commission for every paid Parking Ticket!

"With 3 simple steps CPM will issue a parking ticket to the vehicle owner, using DVLA data and the postal service.

"Complete privacy! Not only is the issuing process quick and discrete, CPM also operates under complete confidentiality.

"Our parking tickets and signs have no reference to yourself, all correspondence are designed to make the motorist believe they have been caught by a CPM Patrol Warden."

Normally, CPM relies on professional wardens and Automatic Number Plate Recognition machines to do its dirty work.

It boasts of running car parking schemes for the NHS, McDonalds and Tesco, operating more than 1000 sites across the UK.

The firm's new app is yet another way of raising vast sums of cash by punishing motorists for relatively minor offences.
