Parking charge extortion
Falls of Shin的点评
点评：We visited on 2/1/25 in the very cold spell; when we entered the lane to the Falls the road was snow covered, but with many vehicle tracks showing that the road was not closed or impassable. On arrival, the place was deserted, and covered in snow. There was yellow tape around the Visitor Centre saying "Fire department - do not cross". Everything was closed and locked up. The pathway down to the Falls had not been treated and was clearly unsafe. There were no signs anywhere to indicate that the place was closed.
On returning to the car we saw a high level sign informing that our car reg no had been captured by ANPR and instructing us to "Phone and Pay, payment must be made within 20 mins of arrival....or you will be liable to a parking charge of £100". It was quite clear that the parking charge would apply automatically apply even if the vehicle was just turning round.
For a Heritage Site to indulge in, or permit such extortion is truly appalling. What price Scottish Hospitality?
All they had to do to prevent this was to place a sign at the entrance to the lane to the site that it was closed.

翻译：我们于 2025 年 2 月 1 日到访，当时正值极寒天气；当我们进入通往瀑布的车道时，路面被大雪覆盖，但有许多车辙表明道路并未封闭或无法通行。到达时，这里空无一人，被大雪覆盖。游客中心周围有黄色胶带，上面写着“消防部门 - 禁止穿越”。所有地方都关闭并锁上了。通往瀑布的路没有经过处理，显然不安全。没有任何标志表明这个地方已经关闭。
回到车上时，我们看到一个高高的标志，上面写着我们的车牌号已被 ANPR 捕获，并指示我们“打电话付款，必须在抵达后 20 分钟内付款……否则您将被收取 100 英镑的停车费”。很明显，即使车辆只是转弯，也会自动收取停车费。
对于一个文化遗址来说，沉迷于或允许这种敲诈勒索真是令人震惊。苏格兰人的好客要付出什么代价？
为了防止这种情况发生，他们所要做的就是在该地点的巷道入口处放置一个标志，表明该地点已关闭。
