    Could you scan in the PCN (front and back) and upload that too, again blanking out any personal details?

    Oh please please link me to the relevant part of that legislation. I'd love to be reassured.

    No it wasn't illegally parked - according to the law of the land - it was parked in contravention of restrictions.
    -
    • Section 28 Town Police Clauses Act 1847 - wilfully causing an obstruction to any public footpath or public thoroughfare.
    • Regulation 103 Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations 1986 - vehicles causing unnecessary obstruction of the road (including verge).
    • Section 22 Road Traffic Act 1988 - leaving vehicles in a dangerous position on the road (including verge).
    • Section 137 Highways Act 1980 wilful obstruction of the free passage along a highway.
    • Section 72 Highways Act 1835 - driving on any footpath or causeway by the side of any road made or set apart for the use or accommodation of foot passengers.

    If you scan in the PCN, then right-click on the image files, and open it with "Paint", click this button:

    eraser.gif (eraser)

    and simply click and drag over the bits of the PCN to erase. Click File > Save and hey presto you've blanked it.
  • Ah well done debacle, very good, yes it was code 01, being parked in a restricted street during prescribed hours.
    There were no signs in the street so how was i in contrvention?

    Oh very good! I'm sure someone will find it useful one day.
    Just one question. What does any of that have to do with him parking in a CPE area and receiving a PCN from the Council under the prevailing legislation?

    You are going to need a bigger shovel for that hole soon mate! LOL
