“YES, they really picked up my car, you know. But the only problem I have was that how come they did not pick up the others cars parked there.”

She was one of 24 people who turned up at a police-controlled car park opposite the Courts Outlet Centre on South Quay, where she paid her $500 and got back her vehicle, a blue Honda Fit.
