A few weeks ago I drove my brother-in-law to Luton Airport at stupid o'clock in the morning.
He was only flying to Scotland for the weekend so he had a small rucksack with all his stuff in, taking it as hand luggage.
At the main terminal for the airport there's around about that either goes to and from the main roads or into the car park.
There were signs saying not to drop people of at the roundabout, but to instead use the car parks (I think).
As I was going around the roundabout, it was pretty stop-start traffic, as I was still he got out of the car and walked off to the airport, he had his bag on his lap so he didn't need to get anything out of the boot.
I just carried on with the flow of traffic (Nothing was disrupted) and drove back home.
I have now had a letter from 'APCOA' (private carpark firm) saying I have 'Breached the terms and conditions of use of the airport road infrastructure'.
I have 28 days to pay £80 (so they say) else the matter may be passed onto a 3rd party for the recovery of the debt. (Surely, not without a civil court case first, though!
)
Should I treat this the same as any other private car parking firm?
