Everyone is familiar with this situation: you have bought a parking ticket but come back early.
But you can't always pass this on.
Finding a parking space can quickly become torture.
Once you have found one, there is a high probability that you will either have to take out your parking disc or need a parking ticket.
The latter is particularly annoying if you only want to do something briefly.
In some places there is a so-called bread button for this.
If they don't exist, drivers sometimes have to pay for longer than they actually park.
The question arises as to whether you can then pass on the parking ticket.
Other drivers may share your own fate and only have to go to the pharmacy or bakery for ten minutes to get breakfast.
And shouldn't you do a good deed every day?
What could be better than passing on the parking ticket.

Passing on a parking ticket is not a problem in municipal parking lots
Unfortunately, it's not that easy to make another driver happy.
It depends on where the parking machine is located.
On municipal parking spaces, for example, it is no problem to pass on the license if it is still valid long enough.
Anyone who has not used the paid time can usually pass on their parking ticket.

It doesn't matter who bought it and for which car.
With parking fees, cities aim to prevent long-term parking and to make parking spaces accessible to as many road users as possible.
This goal is also achieved when a parking ticket is passed on to another driver.
By the way, if the parking ticket is covered in snow, you won't be threatened with a ticket.
Pass on a parking ticket: In private parking spaces, check the small print beforehand
However, things are different if you park your car in a private parking lot.
Here the respective operator can set their own rules and prohibit the passing on of a parking ticket.
This is usually regulated in the terms of use.
Before you give away the parking ticket, it's worth taking a look at the small print.
