NO ENTRY

Not quite parking but it reminded me of a sign outside the Andover Police Station leading into their motor pool / staff car park (I assume).

Typical Red Circle with White band running horizontally across it with the words "POLICE ONLY" written in the middle of the white bit.

Grammatically this would suggest that there is no entry to Police only and that all other motorists can ignore the sign.

I didn't push my luck but if it had said "Except for Police" then this would have removed my temptation.
