摘要：	It is easy to see why drivers might rejoice at the new Code of Practice for private parking, which follows The Parking (Code of Practice) Act 2019. The planned reforms mean that parking charge Levels will mirror the Local authority system for publicly accessible car parks. In England outside of London and in Wales, charges will be reduced from £100 to E70 or £50, depending on the seriousness of the breach. The current £100 cap will be kept only in some circumstances, such as abusing Blue Badge bays or if a motorist is trespassing on private land. Motorists will also be offered a 50% discount if they pay within 14 days, while parking debt collectors will be banned from adding excess fees to the level of the parking charge, currently as much as £70. For those who always swore they were 'only parked there for a minute' there will be compulsory 10-minute grace periods before firms can issue a late fine and a compulsory five-minute cooling-off period in which a motorist can consider the terms and conditions and change their mind about parking.
