Now is the time in bødeblokken again: So many p-fines are printed

In the most recent time, nothing has been as it usually is. The country has been shut down and people have been repatriated as a result of coronakrisen.

The public employees traffic wardens have also been repatriated, but have now come back on the street. Thus bødeblokken come out of your pocket again at the copenhagen traffic wardens.

the Guard returns, has resulted in 448 parkeringsbøder since the end of april.

'the Focus is now not longer only on the dangerous car park, as the city now largely on track to return to a more normal everyday life,' writes Janni Brixen, pressekonsulent in the city of Copenhagen's technical and Environmental administration, to Ekstra Bladet.

Last year, the p-guards in the city of Copenhagen in a hurry to print fines and doled out a total of 332.713 parking fees. It was an increase of almost 25.000 compared with the year before.

the Return has had a big impact on the number of p-fines. Throughout the five weeks from the 12. march forward to the end of april was not awarded a single charge.

Earlier it sounded from the municipality about the reason for the collapse of the distributed p-fines:

'All our p-guards are on the streets of Copenhagen every day. But in the past few months - where the city has been more quiet than usual - have a part of them assisted the police by direct citizens to appropriate and considerate ways to move in the city, so the public health distance requirements are complied with.'

Prime minister Mette Frederiksen (S) closed the country down from 12. march. Until then, there was issued 9944 parking fees. Then, the figure is zero.

For comparison, in January and February issued respectively 28.368 and 26.649 charges, according to an email sent to Ekstra Bladet.
