So who pays for their parking using these new card payment machines?
It seems many towns and cities are now phasing out the old coin machines in favour of these new smart technology payment alternatives.
In my area down here in Dorset we have seen pretty much all coin payment parking machines be replaced with these new card only machines. You can still pay for your parking by using your phone or an app, but you can no longer pay using coins.
I have seen and spoke to many people who end up getting back in their cars and go off looking for somewhere else to park all due to them not wanting to pay for parking by card or phone, some have said they don't even have a card (visa or CC), or even a smartphone.
It seems the future is already here...
