Scenario 1 (Rare): Full server, someone decides to AFK on a pitbox and gets fined for it and in the future they're maybe less likely to do it again.

Scenario 2 (Probably what we would see much more often): Server is not full, player AFK's on a pit box because it's convenient (for example in the pitlane where there are plenty of pitboxes available), player gets fined for no good reason.

While it can be annoying if someone is parked on a pit box, there are many options out there that need just a little bit of added effort from the player. I.e. gently push the player aside, find an unused pit stop, go to a safe zone and pit etc, and these options don't require a complex insim update to punish players.

Scenario 2 is already a safezone, so it wouldn’t make sense to enforce the illegal parking fine in the pitlane. Enforcing the illegal parking fine should be on pit stops that are often used frequently (for example on Paddock Tunnel way or on Kyoto and the Autobahn).
