Just got a parking ticket
« on: 07 October 2010, 17:42:01 »

I tell you at the minute if it can go wrong, it will. Anyway got a parking ticket basically the way it goes at my mums house is, parked up and it's a permit holders area, now I don't live there so I don't have a permit, you can stay there for two hours without the permit. Now it's there and a traffic warden comes down and books the car at 14:21 (or around that time), my Dad goes out at 14:58 and puts a visitors permit on the car. Traffic warden comes back at around 16:45 puts a ticket on the car at 16:50, goes out there, permit has the wrong date on there, it has crossed out Thursday September 8th, today being the 7th, traffic warden said I know that permit was put on today, but rules are rules and it's the wrong day.

Now as she knew it was put on there today I would've thought she could have left it? With it being my car though she couldn't do this. Is there anyway what so ever I can get off of this, I mean there more than likely won't be but anyone know of anyway. Even have CCTV footage of the permit being put on the car, all timed and dated.

I would write to the Authority responsible for issuing the ticket and explain the facts in detail whilst requesting it is cancelled.  That is your right Del, and it often produces a favourable result! 8-) 8-)

Appeal it - you've got nothing to lose.

I got a parking ticket a couple of years ago in leeds.
Parked on a single yellow line, but no plate and no bar across the end.
Appealed - rejected.
Appealed - rejected.
Went to adjudicator, won, and Leeds City Council paid ME £90 costs.
