    Motorists slam city centre where it's cheaper to get a fine than pay 'extortionate' p


    Yahoo! News/Rex -

    Parking near the historic King's Parade in Cambridge costs as much as ?42 a day (Rex)
    Motorists have hit out at a tourism hotspot where parking is so expensive it's cheaper pay a fine for the same spot.

    Fines for parking on double yellows or prohibited streets near King's Parade, Cambridge are ?25 - but parking for the day costs up to ?42.

    The extortionate fees mean drivers actually save money by picking a spot of their choice in the historic centre and getting a parking fine.
