Parking nazis.

I just found this list of ridiculous parking tickets on timesonline.co.uk:

1. Truck trapped by a partial collapse of the road due to a burst water main.
2. Car not so much parked as trapped and wrecked by a falling tree.
3. Moped rider knocked off and his leg broken.
4. A horse.
5. Went over time on parking due to giving a witness statement to police about a bank robbery.
6. Blood Service lorry getting mobile blood donations.
7. Bus stopping for passengers.
8. Someone who'd stopped to have a heart attack.
9. A snowmobile that apparently never left Sweden owned by a guy who hadn't been to the UK for years.
10. A driving instructor whose student driver had stalled while doing a 3 pointer.

Possibly in an attempt to make up for the Ashes up in Darwin a keen parking warden has gone one further for Australian pride. Ready for this?

Are you sure you're ready?

He ticketed a dog.

The blue heeler was tied to a fence outside Rapid Creek market when it was approached by two Darwin City Council traffic wardens. One of the inspectors wrote out a ticket - and taped it to the dog's lead.

The world's a fucking madhouse, isn't it?
