PRINCE WILLIAM - PRINCE WILLIAM ESCAPES PARKING FINE

PRINCE WILLIAM ESCAPES PARKING FINE

PRINCE WILLIAM escaped a parking fine despite leaving his car on a double yellow line as he partied into the early hours in an exclusive nightclub. The British royal was inside the Embassy nightclub in London's Mayfair in the early hours of Saturday morning (17Nov07) when a traffic warden was about to issue a parking ticket - only to be dismissed by one of his royal police protection officers. Westminster Council's parking services, CP, said that unmarked police cars can park on double-yellow lines while on official business and police sources say royal protection officers are always on duty if their charges are in public. But a spokesman for the Prince has refused to comment on the incident, saying, "We never discuss security issues."
