Parking at Beijing West Railway Station for four days, charging 22 10 yuan! Do you think the charge is reasonable?

It seems unreasonable at first glance, but it is actually excusable.

First of all, the parking place is Beijing West Railway Station.

Since it is a station, it is a public place, or a public place with many people. What if there is no high parking fee in the parking lot? More and more people will park their cars here for a long time.

Last year, my city made a reform, parking in the station parking lot for more than 12 hours, and the parking fee increased geometrically. But if the parking time is less than 30 minutes, it is free. This is a measure to prevent many people from parking for a long time and crowding out public resources.

If the parking fee at the station is too low, many people will park their cars here for a long time, but as soon as this measure comes out, many people will pick up people efficiently and give them free parking. Those who want to dock for a long time, then pay more, which is their price.

Secondly, the parking fee is calculated by the hour and is within the acceptable range.

Four days and 96 hours, the charge is 22 10 yuan, and the average hourly 23 yuan. This price is actually quite normal in the parking fee/hour, at least it is definitely not outrageous.

In Beijing, also in Beijing West Railway Station, I don't know much about the hourly parking fee. I only know that in my second-and third-tier cities, the hourly parking fee in 23 yuan is slightly higher than the average, which should be acceptable in first-tier cities.

Of course, it is best to set an upper limit for parking fees. For example, many airports will have a peak limit, which is more acceptable to the public.
