Hiya

I hope someone will know the answer to this.

My friend parked in an off street car park - Council run and she received an excess charge notice (parking ticket). The ticket says "Road Traffic (Regulation) act 1984 section 35. But there is no where on the ticket about appealing it? is that right? should there be somewhere on the ticket telling her how to appeal?

Any help would be wonderful!

Thanks in advance

    I'm not too sure about this but I think that the Excess Charge is under entirely different legislation and from what I recall should be paid or its a trip to the maggistrate court.
    I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.

    Provided that the Council has NOT move to decriminalised and so used incorrect paperwork, which in unlikely but not totally impossible, then this may be very hard to fight.
