New parking rules ban popular car models exceeding five meters in the UK

express.co.uk

Seven popular car models are now banned from some UK car parks due to a strict five-meter length rule. This new regulation means vehicles exceeding this limit, including many Teslas, Kias, and BMWs, risk fines if they park in bays measuring only 4.8 meters. Car sizes have increased significantly over decades, while parking bay dimensions have largely remained unchanged, leading to this enforcement by five local councils.
