We've all been there...when you gotta go, you gotta go!
What would you do when you REALLY NEED TO GO to the bathroom and parked on double yellow lines?!
Well one driver unfortunately was in this exact situation and got hit with a fine for leaving her car on the yellow lines.
Jayne Parsons was loading up her car with baked goods to sell at a local horse show when she quickly realized she had to go!
She ran to the bathroom and came back with a ticket waiting for her.
She decided to be a bit creative to dodge the fine by writing a poem!
Jayne wrote a poem about needing to poo to explain why she left her car on the road.
The poem reads:
"Dear Sir, or to whom it may concern,
A parking fine I did earn.
I was parked outside my house on yellow lines,
Intending to move and dodge your fines.
But on Sunday I was loading my car
With food and cakes for a horse show; not far
Before these events, I get a nervous tum,
For the toilet I had to run.
And with not a moment to lose,
I made it indoors to release my poos!
I couldn't move until all was done,
But when I returned the fine was done.
I thought it better was be discreet
And leave the car parked in the street.
Next time I'll move and not be a pain,
But if I get caught short, I'll s*** in the drain."
She then received a response from the council saying,
"The penalty charge notice was correctly issued as the vehicle was parked in a restricted street during prescribed hours. In this instance the restriction is clearly indicated by the double yellow lines which are in effect at all times.
However, in considering people's circumstances,
The council is often led song and dances,
It's difficult to know the truth,
And quite often we would ask for proof,
But the photographs the officer has taken,
Shows that indeed, you had been baking,
These cakes had been loaded in your Land Rover,
On the double yellow lines it was parked over,
So on this occasion we are pleased to say,
The council accept your appeal, you do not have to pay."
If only we could all be this lucky!
We love this hilarious poem!
