    Friends did it wednesday when we were in the car and saw another car doing it too. When your leaving the exam Give your day long parking ticket to a random car coming in if you don't have another exam that day.

    I got one when driving into the RDS last year of some randomer, saved me 5 Euros.

    I gave it to a random girl when leaving. It was a good idea I think

    If you keep doing this, they're going to raise the price of the ticket as they'll be loosing money.

    Yeah I got a ticket off some guy last year, would've given mine away this year but they've been sending me out by Simmonscourt which is an exit only.

    At €5 a ticket, its money for free as the overheads in parking are criminally low. But I agree, it is a shade dishonest especially when you see people blatantly swapping tickets at the entrance gate.

    I never park at the Xmas exams as the spaces are much tighter and I don't trust half the drivers in UCD. Say that if you get even 2 mates to chip in on the parking, its cheaper than a bus.

    I think they're just making extra money off the parking. I don't think they're paying seperately for the parking facilities.
