    Well I am living in an estate next to a college and as you can imagine student parking is a disaster. So they had single yellow lines put down on one side of the road. Now I left my car outside the house on a yellow line and got a €40 fine. My question is do I have any rights cause it was outside my home or do I just have to shut up and pay up? Anyone experience this before?

    Thanks

    It's a public road, you have no additional rights to park there.

    You have no special right to park on the road space outside your home. But sometimes, parking restrictions in housing estates have concessions for genuine residents. You'd buy have to buy a permit, I think. But maybe no such scheme operates where you live.

    Ya i was a bit annoyed at first but ill just go pay it now and learn my lesson. I mean we have 3 cars and a transit hicube kinda hard to keep them all in the drive at once so parking on the road was the only option, have to sort something else now. thanks for the replies
