Parking fines - chase to UK?

Hi everyone

 

I just have a little question we recently had some people from UK and whilst they were here they got a parking fine on my car. I filled in a stat dec and gave their name and myparents address in UK. Does anyone know if they will chase them for this $80? I feel bad and maybe i should pay it as it is my car. Dont want them to have a black mark next to their name if it just stays in the system??

 

Any advice gratefull received...

 

Thanks

Unlikely - they will just write it off. Cost more to persue it and they dont have juristiction to claim OZ debts from UK.

 

In UK they cant enforce foreign registered cars (e.g. France) for parking fines, and they are just across the pond!!

I would check that they cant come after you being the registered owner tho??

Surely the best resolution to this is for your friends to pay the fine. It would be the right thing to do.

$80 is a pathetic amount of money to be running away from.
