UK councils fine large cars exceeding parking space length

Drivers of certain large vehicles, including BMW 7 Series and Tesla Model S, face potential parking fines in some UK councils due to new length restrictions. At least five councils have banned vehicles exceeding a specific length from their parking spaces, with fines up to £70 possible for violations. The new rules primarily target larger cars, as parking bays are often too small for modern vehicles. These restrictions, affecting areas like Wokingham and South Hampshire, aim to address the growing size of vehicles compared to existing parking infrastructure, but exclude high-end sports vehicles.
