Amsterdam cancels 82,900 parking fines: majority waived after appeal

The city of Amsterdam canceled over 82,900 parking fines last year after more than 65% of filed objections were declared well-founded. While approximately 19% of the waivers were due to municipal errors, the majority resulted from the city forgiving common mistakes made by citizens, such as entering incorrect license plate numbers. In total, more than 10% of the 731,100 parking tickets issued in the city were ultimately waived.
