A car parked outside my neighbour's house here on Church Street was clamped this morning by DVLA officials. The driver was a local student who had borrowed his sister's car to take a bunch of mates back to Manchester Uni, but he'd not realised the tax had run out at the end of March. It cost him a whopping £260 to get it released.
The clamping team appeared to be employed by National Car Parks, working on contract to the DVLA.
Expensive lesson...
So public sector departments are throwing money away to the private sector in the form of subcontracts?
