District councils around the country are vowing to crack down on inconsiderate parking practices of campervans.
Parking wardens are targeting and issuing parking infringement fines for vehicles that take more than one parking space. The offending vans are the large full facility vehicles that have little hope fitting into standard parking bays in New Zealand’s tourist hot spots.
Unfortunately in most cases inner city car parking are at a premium with local councils maximizing parking spaces resulting in small bays.
It is interesting to note that these same Councils are actively trying to discourage smaller campervans that have no toilet facilities. These sleeping vans as they are known can easily fit standard parking bays. Councils are actively pursuing legal avenues to effectively ban sleeping vans from their districts by forcing them to overnight at camping grounds.
Now the full facility campervans are the latest target in a situation where they have little choice in the manner they park.
