VARIOUS people have written in concerning the 'trigger happy' traffic wardens, but, can anyone beat this?

My husband was travelling along a side street in Bolton town centre when the traffic stopped, due to some hazard in front.

While my husband was waiting, a traffic warden approached his car and asked why he had stopped! My husband replied: "I am waiting for the traffic in front to move!"

The traffic warden just grinned and walked off without an apology for his bizarre assumption. Traffic wardens are certainly a deterrent to any shopper or business visitor to the town.
