The British Parking Association (BPA) and International Parking Community (IPC) have vowed to clamp down on these issues by tightening regulations in their new private parking Code of Conduct, reports the Express.
She declared: "We want to strike a balance between ensuring that parking charges and debt recovery fees are at a reasonable level and allowing parking operators to manage car parks effectively.
He added: "Last year, a new code of conduct was brought in to make rules around private parking tickets fairer for drivers, including reduced fees and a more relaxed appeal system.
"However, it seems that the DVLA might take this one step further, by preventing private parking companies from having access to their database in order to distribute fines to drivers.".
Private parking firms could soon find themselves 'banned' from accessing DVLA databases for slapping unfair fines on UK motorists, as part of a substantial overhaul of the rules.
