Have you experienced any of the followings while your car was parked at a paid parking bays?:1) Missing items from car,
2) Car dented or hit by other vehicle,
3) Car was visibly broken into,
and you were unable to pursue your claim due to the disclaimer signage or hindered by the car park Operator's "terms and conditions"?
If the case in Georgetown Penang is to go by, you can now haul up the Operator to court and seek justice. Well, at the very least try to iron out terms and regulations that you think are unfair to you as customer. The Georgetown case involved a landmark decision of a RM1,688 award to a lawyer who challenged the "park at your own risk" validity when items were stolen from his car.
Lesson to learn here is that Operators can not run away from responsibility to care for vehicles parked in the area under their care.
Come on, you can not expect me to pass by your gate barrier, collect RM2.00 and assume nothing, can you?
