I bet the law was written so that the victims still had to pay fines, though. How was the grinder powered?

Petrol. And he used a stihl saw not an angle grinder.

IIRC you have to pay the fine, and you get prosecuted for criminal damage on the clamp :(

I can't see that they can get you as long as a) you didn't do it and b) you didn't ask anyone else to. The law cannot possibly hold you responsible for the unsolicited actions of a passing stranger!

They will probably say that, since the clamp was attached to your car, you were responsible for it! And they would still do you for the parking fine. Bummer. I wonder if the insurance would cover a broken clamp?

If its a council sub contracted firm, then probably. A private firm acting in a private car park might be somewhat different since the "fine" is in reality just and invoice.

I liked the laconic, and subtly menacing, statement from Sydney Police, quoted in The Week: "He is committing the offence of criminal damage. We will deal with him."
