Yep. The Man always has to get his cut. This is capitalism wrapped in sheeple wool.
If it were about “safety”, then
Donating to food to the hungry wouldn’t be a fucking crime, because the systems to ensure that food was fine’d be baseline already.
Produce markets wouldn’t be ranked by their area’s affluence to ensure the poor get the products closest to spoiling, etc. (Don’t even get me started on “expiry” dates)
Food workers would be properly trained, instead of forced to wear gloves to signal for the mewling masses “See? Just like a doctor, and doctors are always clean and safe.” —while continuing to touch every goddamn thing they come across for hours w/o washing their hands anymore, much less changing them out.
Instead, people blithely parrot this “safety” bullshit while millions go hungry and perfectly good, edible food is wasted in disgusting amounts every. single. day.
But, hey, at least everyone can (will/has) point at this “law”. “Ope, hands are tied, sorry.” 😶
Nah, it’s about keeping the poors in line and low-key afraid.
Presuming this is a residential street im sure the neighbours are happy about 100s of people driving in from surrounding towns every day.
I agree there should be easier paths to compliance but clearly these rules exist for a reason and shouldn’t be ignored.

I don’t think that that is a crime in the UK. Definitely is in the US though…
It’s not in the UK’s exploitation class’ interests yet.
