That's true. Being vigilant is definitely the key in this scenario. It's wise to keep track of time and not leave anything to chance, especially since many of us lead busy lives and might forget about our vehicles while attending to errands and appointments. Better not to risk it!

That's true. The fee is there for a purpose, to prevent vehicle holders from hogging onto the limited parking spaces and potentially missing out on some income for the business as well.

There are many reasons why someone might need to leave their car at the lot longer than intended. This charge could put an unnecessary burden on them. Not everyone can afford such unexpected fees, especially if they're already strapped for cash.

The whole situation could have been avoided had she charged her vehicle and left the lot in a timely manner! It's a harsh reminder for us all, haha.

You're right. It's a good practice, though not many of us are in the habit of reading through T&Cs carefully. They tend to be lengthy and filled with legal jargon, but the lesson here is an expensive one that could serve us well by being more thorough!

That's right. There's no excuse after seeing the signs or receiving any communication from the carpark terms and conditions. The fee is also definitely a great incentive to be aware of the time! Better to learn a lesson like this with a smaller mistake than something more costly.
