There is nothing worse than coming back to your car to see you’ve been clamped.

It’s hard to know what’s the more frustrating part of the equation: waiting for the clamper to come back (which could take an hour or two) or paying an extortionate fee to have the use of your car again.

According to a new poll reported by the Irish Mirror, more than 1,100 people attempted to take their clamps off by themselves.

We’d like to say this was crazy behaviour, but we can 100 per cent see ourselves attempt to remove a clamp with a hairbrush.

With that said, you can use this handy map of the top 10 spots you’re most likely to be clamped to try and save your pennies:
