UKCPS Fine - LBC - Too late to do anything?
Ok so a few years ago I received a parking fine from a private firm and the advice at the time was to completely ignore it and it will go away, I did this and it did just that. So, when I received a similar fine recently I did the same thing, to my dismay I have realized this was a bad move as the laws have changed. I have…

Bus Stop Parking Notice
I have received a Penalty Charge notice for stopping in a bus lane, which I think I may have a number of grounds to refuse to pay. Firstly the Code they are referencing on the PCN is "Stopped on a restricted bus stop or stand" which I believe should start "Parked..." as per code 47. As they have this wrong is it grounds to…

Entrance Signs and One Way Systems
I understand it is in the code of conduct that PPCs should have signs at each entrance to a car park. What if you use an entrance which (due to the negligence of the PPC) does not have any signs and go through to another part using a section of private service road/car park which has signs resembling the "no-entry" type…

change of signage Scotland
I noticed that recently Civil Enforcement have amended the signage at a retail park in Aberdeen from '3 hours £140/ reduced to £70 if paid within 14 days' to '£100 flat fee/no reduction'. Is this because the original "fine" was way over the BPA guidelines or have their (BPA) own guidelines increased to £150? Either way the…
