It's going to be interesting to see how the City of Yarra will charge yank tanks extra.

You can take up multiple bays if your vehicle doesn't fit in one. So anyone getting a fine for not fitting in the space will just go to court and get it dismissed.

Charging different rates for different vehicles could also get parking classified as a tax, thanks to the EV case. Which local governments cannot do.

Should be charged a higher rego too. They're friggin stupid. no one NEEDS one. A Triton or Landcruiser can do almost everything a yank tank can do, and you dont look like a member of a small penis support group whilst they do it.
