Hi, not sure if this is the best place, but it is car related, If not suitable, could a MOD please move, thank you.
At work, our car park is under size compared to the number of people that want to use it. To try and reduce the numbers, the company had introduced a scheme...
Basics:
When you start work you can apply for a pass that you then stick to the windscreen, to show you are allowed to use the car park, however, there is no limit to the number of passes given out and thus it is first come first served (or parked in this case).
Due to a recent rise in new employees (thanks Swine Flu), more and more people have been parking in the area, but not always in actual spaces, sometimes parking behind other properly parked cars...
As of today, they sent a warning to ALL users, that if a pass is not displayed on the windscreen, then an A4 sticker is placed on the passenger Side window, and details logged, repeat offenders will get disciplinary action taken...
My car has a heated windscreen and as a result, the pass no longer sticks, so I left mine in clear view on the dash... however, as it was Not on the windscreen, you guessed it, they have stickered my car.
I have spoken to facilities and the site manager and they have removed my name form the offenders list, but will not remove the sticker as it was "put on in good faith"???
So my question is this:
As Im at work, I do not have the means to remove this darn thing, its a full on A4 sticker and needs soap and water to remove!
Is there any law that I would be breaking by driving the car with the sticker obscuring my vision from the passenger window?
This may seam like a daft question, but there are many people here asking the same, some stating that it is a visual imparment and dangerous ???
Sorry for the long rant...
