Another Dartford CPN
Made the crossing on 27 Aug one way, back a week later. My OH registered my car (which we were travelling in) into his account a few miles before reaching the tunnel. It showed fine (indeed recognised the make and model of car). Today, I received a CPN for the onwards crossing. Logged into account, showed that we had been…

Driving a tractor on a beach.
Okay, bit of an odd one, but hear me out. Let's say a well known site of misery, who have commissioned a well known Parking Company, who are equally known for spreading misery, decide to use their "tractor" to help deliver their activities along the adjacent beach, which, I am led to understand, is not Private. Would the…

Parking Notice CP plus
Looking for any advice, I live in Scotland as I know enforcements can differ from England. I received a 'Parking Notice Enclosed' from CP Plus Ltd, in hospital grounds. This notice does not state Charge or Penalty, just Notice. Is this a legal parking ticket, as it was not issued by the police or council, can this be…

He was in Belfast city centre and parked along the side of the road, in a proper parking spot (not marked for disabled). He has his badge permanently attached to the corner of his front window. He received…

KADOE agreement & Signs
Reading through a sample KADOE agreement I did note this:- https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/455973/Annex_A_-_KADOE_Fee_Paying_Contract_V4.pdf Sounds to me that any signs without advertising consent is a breach of the KADOE agreement.

C P Plus - should I carry on?
Hi all. I visited my local hospital to hand deliver a letter to main reception. I was in the grounds for approximately one hour but was only "parked" for about 20 minutes.

Another BW Legal / JLA post...
Apologies first of all for adding another BW Legal post - I have done a fair bit of reading around, and feel I should respond to their latest letter - however there are some subtle differences with my case that don't quite crop up on the other posts I have read, both on here and on PePiPoo. The original PCN dates back to…

Odd situation with parking at work
I work for the local council. We have a big car park, but it still gets overly busy, and there were lots of people parking on verges, hatched areas and double yellow lines. So they have now introduced parking permits. Anyone now caught parking in unauthorised areas is issued with a warning, and repeat offenders will be…
