Hi
place where i work is on a private estate.
a lot of the companys on the estate stopped paying there rents.
due in part to flooding from the road into there place of buisness.
the estates retaliated by bringing in a private wheel clamping co.
this has been going on for a few months .
cars, lorry's ,vans, have all been clamped.
this is just a few.
van driver stopped and went into a co yard to deliver a parcel .clamped.

car driver came to our place parked on road 3mins.clamped

so our boss had our welder cut the clamp of with gas axe

police called row started when he then sent 25 ton loading shovel to block in clampers car.

then sent in a grab to help intimidate clamper ,and pointed out to him that it was night shift drivers that were blocking him in.

police couldnt do any thing other than threaten to prosecute us for blocking highway and charge for damaging clamp.

driving school car stopped on road while he explained how to do a 3 point turn
man pulls up nice and polite and his mate sneaks up .clamp

hgv driver pulls of road onto waste land belonging to estates waakes up to find he had been clamped and cones placed all round his truck.

hgv. driver stops on road checking his load clamper jumps out of van comes running up intent on clamping hgv.
Driver said to him if you come near my truck with that clamp you will get a smack. clamper pushes his luck lorry driver knocks him clean out.

then rings clamp firm and said your man is unconscious next to my truck.

result clampers dont want to do job anymore.
