A Brisbane driver has been told to return their vehicle after leaving it parked in a shopping centre for four years.
The car, parked at the Uptown (formerly the Myer Centre car park) in Queen Street Mall, has accumulated over $75,000 in parking fines.
This morning on Triple M Breakfast with Marto, Margaux, and Dan, it was revealed that there are other hotspots in Brisbane and the Gold Coast where people are leaving their unwanted cars.
FIND OUT WHERE:
“Back in the 90s (I deliberately left) my two door Cortina, gifted by my dad carked it, I didn’t know what to do with it,” Triple M Listener John told Triple M Breakfast with Marto, Margaux and Dan.
“So I took it down to the Broadwater Carpark and left it there. I left it there for three weeks before going back to get it.”
Triple M Breakfast with Marto, Margaux, and Dan also discussed other locations where people are abandoning their cars, including reports of over 50 vehicles left at Brisbane airport carparks in 2024 alone.
