CCTV car parks, ever felt like provoking?
I keep reading stories about people who visit the same car park twice within, say, 2 hours and receiving threatening letters. Has anyone ever felt like provoking this on purpose in order to create a bit of timewasting for the cash collection companies whom we like so much?

Incorrect info on parking fine.
I got a parking fine tonight when I parked on some waste ground next to the chinese I was popping in to for some grub. Bad luck aside, when I look at the ticket it says it happened at 12.43 which is clearly not true. Is this something I can challenge on? And also it says I got it for parking adjacent to a dropped footway,…

Where I park every day for work, there are two roads running parallel to each other - they are Wilton Road and Wye Street. Each have 4 hours parking. So, every day without fail for the past 2 years I've parked in Wilton Road for 4 hours in…

Parking in a CPZ - appeal?
Hi all Last Wednesday I got a ticket for parking in a CPZ within restricted hours. It's a fair cop in that the signage WAS clear at the entrance to the CPZ, and I simply didn't see it. However, I had parked there while going to a restaurant with a friend who was on crutches. This CPZ was the nearest place I could park to…

Got a ticket while loading, what are my chances with an appeal?
This is the first time I've received a ticket and would be grateful for any advice. My friends live in a flat above shops on a High Street and I had to deliver several heavy boxes of stuff to them.

tickets 2 mins into restricted time
Is there any defense I can use if I was ticketed for being in a restricted zone on a yellow line for 2 mins to long. The restriction was from 11am, and I had parked there at 10am and arrived apparently 2 mins too late - I thought I was on time. I was observed from 11:01 to 11:02 (which in itself might only mean 2 seconds…

Paying PPC's
I do not suppose that there is any way of finding out, but I have been wondering what percentage of PPC invoices actually get paid by the uninformed (ie. People who do not visit this forum) I wonder how low the percentage of payers/ mugs would have to be before the PPC's found that it was no longer worth their while to…

First Time Poster (i think)
Hi I am a new poster and I saw an article about the parking fines this morning so i thought i'd check it out. I got a PCN last week. Without making excuses, am I weasting my time appealing against this? I admit I am slightly on the yellow but for god sake it's petty to say the least. The entry way is a private driveway (a…

Here is a conundrum for you. My neighbour went to the council dump on a sunday afternoon with a largeish load around one month ago and as he drove over the large ramp at the entrance, his car's exhaust fell off. After a long wait he was recovered by his breakdown service and taken to the nearest local exhaust shop open on…
