• Parking Ticket - Parking on The Pavement 27 Sep 2007 (Forum)
  I have just received a parking ticket for parking on the pavement, ticket states "parked with 1 or more wheels on any part of an urban road other than a carriageway (footway parking)". The road was very narrow hence the parking on the pavement & there was no parking restriction signs. I wasn't
• Westminster "business" 22 Feb 2006 (Forum)
  pay in bulk once per week. Interestingly, they call them "customers" and there are criteries as to who can apply based on average number of tickets they get per week. I always assumed that a parking ticket was a fine for a parking offense... hmmm... I must've been mistaken. Kostic
• Parking Charges 17 Mar 2008 (Forum)
  , there was a sign across the street on a building that was set back from the road warning about the parking. Is there any recourse with these companies or is it a case of being stitched and swallowing the £80 fine?
• Parking Near University 8 May 2014 (Forum)
  " proves they are attending the Uni, the Uni has the right to ticket or clamp the parked vehicle. I say that if there are no restrictions in force or is a CPZ then as she has valid car tax, she has the right to park wherever she pleases, and that if she is given a fine or clamp that its not paid

• Snowmobile in Warwick! 7 Sep 2004 (Forum)
  I read that a Swedish farmer has received a parking fine from Warwick. Unfortunately, the vehicle alleged to have been parked illegally is his snowmobile, which has been parked in his barn since last winter... Reminds me of the local farmer who received a speeding fine for his 35 yr old John Deere
• meter maids... 25 Sep 2002 (Forum)
  Was wandering around town yesterday, and saw a UK plated R-reg Range Rover parked at a meter, which had been ticketed. For the R60 fine (4 quid to you!) is it going to be worth the hassle for the Traffic Department to trace said driver if he doesn't pay? On the next corner, parked across
• Pregnant woman fined 19 Jun 2009 (Forum)
  http://tinyurl.com/n5ylbd I don't think she has much of a case to complain. As has been pointed out on here many times, the Mother&Baby Space is there to allow a person to maneuver a child in and out of a car seat / pushchair . Is she saying that being pregnant means she needs a special parking

  He parked in a car park but bought a ticket but left the sunroof slightly open, the wind must have blown the ticket of the dashboard. When he got to the car the ticket was on the drivers seat and not the windscreen. He has proof via CCTV and via the ticket that he bought one, is there any hope

• Impounding law? 5 Jan 2005 (Forum)
  would never receive the fines back home (which is still the case). Does the council have any authority to tow the car away due to the amount of unpaid fines? Or if not, does it have the authority to tow the car away for having been on a 1 hour parking area for just 2 hours extra? Bear in mind that a car
• Parking in Portsmouth? 19 Aug 2009 (Forum)
  If so, keep well into the kerb. According to today's Telegraph, page 7, parking attendants will soon isssue tickets if the distance is over 50 cm. Admittedly, a lot of leeway but a local councillor asks "What about people with wheelchairs and Zimmer frames? And what next? Will we be fining

• HJ- Daily Telegraph, Ealing Parking Fines 5 Jun 2008 (Forum)

• Please endorse my licence 12 Jan 2004 (Forum)
  about how not only have they been fined, but have been given points on their licence. What is most amusing about the whole situation is that the only cars parked in the road, were those parked on the zigzags. The rest of the street was empty.
