A COUNCIL enforcement car parks on double yellow lines in the Croydon's busy High Street as an unimpressed office worker on her lunch break grabs a picture.
Sophie Gowland, 24, of Selhurst, was picking up lunch from Sainsbury's last Tuesday (June 17) at approximately 1.45pm when she spotted the council Smart Car resting in the spot, less than 200 metres away from Croydon Council's HQ, Bernard Weatherill House.
She said: "I think it takes the biscuit personally. If we parked there and popped out for a second, they would be straight out slapping a fine on. It's one rule for us and another for them."
But a council spokesman denied any wrongdoing by the enforcement officer, saying: "The CCTV smart car stopped to record the details of an illegally parked vehicle.
"It was attended at all times, and is allowed to stop on restrictions when the officer is carrying out statutory duties."
