    With the sticker fixed, Walker thought the problem would get
    sorted quickly and Auckland Transport would revoke the fine.
    However, he couldnrCOt get any sort of response from them..

    rCLI messaged Auckland Transport to get the fine back, like $200 is
    a lot of money. They haven't said anything about it and it's been
    three weeks now,rCY he said.

    But after Stuff contacted Auckland Transport on WalkerrCOs behalf,
    officials admitted their mistake and promised the fine would be
    scrapped once Walker got in touch ...

    ...

    Walker was delighted when he heard the fine would be cancelled rCo
    though disappointed it took media pressure to sort it.

    If you didnrCOt have the media, who yourCOre gonna call?
