The vehicle was half on and half off double yellow lines, and received a parking ticket this morning from a young female traffic warden who said she “did not want to give them a ticket as they were her favorite band on the X-Factor” so she waited for several minutes before she placed the ticket on the car. The Hummer had been parked there since earlier than 7am that morning. Charing Cross, London.
