Update:

So I managed to find parking this morning.

Entered the court building at 9.45am.
Was directed to the correct office with fine in hand.

Was advised that the card machine is not working. No problem, had cash with me.

Handed her the fine and cash and then the waiting started. After an hour and a half I was told that the system is down and that a manual receipt will be issued.

20 minutes later I received a manual receipt. 10 minutes short of 2 hours I left the court building wondering if my cash was going to end up in the right place and not in someone's pocket. Forgive me for having these thoughts, but I smell a rat.

Hope I'm wrong.
