'Are you going to put a ticket on it?' Furious motorist berates a sheepish traffic warden after he catches him parking all day in a 30-minute bay... but did he really break the law?
- Traffic warden is lectured for parking in a 30 minute bay in Stroud all day

A furious driver does what many motorists have dreamed of and confronts a traffic warden for apparently breaking his own parking rules, in this hilarious video.
The irate cameraman lectures the embarrassed warden for parking in a 30-minute bay in Stroud 'all day'.

The sheepish warden claims it is a company car and he can stay there as long as he likes.
However the infuriated driver does not agree. He said: 'You said it is a company vehicle. It says "30 minutes" up there and you can park there all day can you?
'You have got the right to park there illegally all day?'
He adds: 'Are you going to put a ticket on it? You have been caught and this is going to the papers.'
The traffic warden only mumbles 'I'm not making any comment.'
However, Gloucestershire County Council and APCOA, the private firm the council employs to enforce parking restrictions, said the warden had not done anything wrong and was allowed to park in the bay while 'on duty'.
A spokesperson for APCOA told Gloucestershire Live: 'Our Civil Enforcement Officer is permitted to park in this location whilst conducting his duties.'
Jim Daniels, parking manager at Gloucestershire County Council, added: 'Our staff have to park in spaces when patrolling and this usually take longer than 30 minutes, especially when monitoring long stay parking.'
