A joker, that being a smart thought to be by a parking ticket of $60 to pay with coins of five and ten cents was a rude awakening. On paper this seemed like a fun idea, but the practice is far more problematic.

This inhabitant of Adelaide, Australia, was quite pissed off because he has a parking ticket had been given. Therefore, he went to the bank and got there for $60 at 5 and 10 cent coins. Who did he then neatly put in a bag and brought a visit to parking enforcement.

He reports neat that his outstanding traffic ticket(s) is willing to pay and dumps then all the coins on the counter. The startled employee of parking enforcement then know that they have the money can not accept. Discuss with the foutparkeerder, however, has little meaning. The man continues to persevere and walks away with the statement: “I paid. I’m out. Bye. I gift you the money.”

This bijgoochem has, however, overlooked that following the Australian law payments in excess of the $5 coins of 5, 10, 20 or 50 cent coins can be refused. Read it yourself but after.

A spokesman of the municipality now has the following:

“We will be sending the customer a letter to communicate the fine remains outstanding and his money is being held in the safe,”

We can, I think, to say that the idea is nice, but perhaps had the best man is something more in the matter must come to grips. He has, in any case, a fun viral video to show for it. (via: news.com.au)
