New rules that make it impossible to dodge parking tickets come into force today. The Traffic Management Act 2004 now gives UK councils the power to use CCTV cameras, as well as wardens, to spot and ticket illegally parked cars.

Scientists at Rome University have been leading the ÷£2million project for more than two years, but Bertone’s sketches for the driver’s seat show that something extraordinary is being plan÷ned by the Swedish manufacturer.
They reveal a small console that operates the car which can either be folded away or removed completely. Outside, each wheel of the fuel cell hybrid will be fully steerable through 90 degrees, so on-street parking will be simple. The wheels have electric motors in their hubs. These are powered by batteries which are topped up by a hydrogen fuel cell, and all the controls are drive-by-wire, with no mechanical links.
