Parking for tens of thousands of euros? A vending machine in a parking garage in Cologne has WDR presenter Sabine Heinrich violently asked to pay. The 41-year-old was only briefly in the sport.
86,700 euros should cost the parking in the garage. And in cash, "maximum note value: 20.00 Euro", as it was called in the display. "I did not understand the number at first and had to laugh a lot," said the journalist.
After the visit to the gym, Heinrich wanted to get into the car - according to the automaton, the car should have been in the parking lot since January 1st, 2007, exactly from "2.33 am".
"I certainly was not at the sport for that long," said Heinrich. She posted a photo of the automatic display on Instagram - and asked: "Um ... does anyone have change for me?"

Um ... does anyone have change for me? #parking #fail #warichsolangeweg? # cologne _______________ ... the map was faulty - so do not worry, I do not have to stay in the garage for ever. It was very funny.

Why the machine demanded the extremely high sum? It was a ticket error, said Heinrich. She was easily - and not broke - out of the parking garage.
