00:00I think motorists generally are victimised and I think local authorities and other like private car parking do take advantage of the motorists.
00:10I used to be a motorist. I no longer have a car so I'm not affected in that way.
00:15But I do think that motorists generally are exploited and I personally think that car parking charges are too expensive.
00:25I think there probably needs to be some flexibility.
00:28I don't think it does incentivise people to use public transport because the people who are being squeezed for like parking fees and so forth are people who are already like they already work with automobiles as a standard or whatever.
00:38Like the automobile lobby or whatever is always in favour of reducing fees, reducing ULAs, reducing like like payments and stuff like that.
00:47I don't think it's very likely that a lot of them are going to move out of their cars.
00:51And I think that the people who need to make use of cars are very often the ones who are being targeted the most.
00:55It's to the disadvantage of local businesses.
