Council PCN received. Is their evidence enough ?
Received a PCN on the window for allegedly not registering for a 1 hr free permit in a bay on highstreet. Is the evidence they have presented enough to confirm that the parking was indeed parked near the alleged signs in the alleged bay. I am not sure. Any advice would be highly appreciated.
