Minsk Woman Charged 185 Rubles for Parking She Didn’t Use

A woman from Minsk sent an SMS upon entering her usual parking lot but received a debt notification. "Parkovki Stolitsy" explained that a technical failure might have caused the charge — disputed charges are reviewed by a 24/7 dispatch service and cancelled if necessary. They also reminded users that an open barrier does not mean free parking. Hourly parking in Minsk costs between 1 and 7 rubles.
