Dear All:

I need help. I parked my car in a paid parking zone without payment by mistake. I came back after a couple of hours to find my car missing. It was midnight. and weekend. What should I do? I live in al khobar area, Saudi Arabia.

Thanks in advance.

Go to the police, in any case they will be able to help you.

What about contacting those responsible for towing cars parked without payment/the local pounds to see if they took it.

Thanks I went to Mawgif impound parking lot on Mansour Street, 3rd corss, Alkhobar. There was my car :). But the fine is hefty. 130 for the car towing and 50 riyal fine per parking violation. It appears that the previous owners of the car had committed 2 violations before me... so i ended up paying 280 riyals :(

Really...forget to pay your parking fee in California......the towing charge...800 SR and the storage fee....900 SR....and the ticket....100SR.......so consider yourself lucky and pay the parking fees......upfront.

Lesson learned!!!
