    Yes please, often the bays fail to meet the regulations and are unenforceable.
    I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.

    This is the parking space we were parked in when we got the ticket. Our back wheels were over the line & in the next space.

    get the regs and compare the bay size to the regs.

    Don't look brilliantly marked - but I'm not an expert here.

    This is the only warning sign I can see.
    I can take a pic of the ticket machine but in fairness I would not look at that as I have a permit!

    Just bumping your thread in the hope someone with legal info sees it.

    Incidentally, how far away from the bay is that single sign? I notice you parked near a fence, not outside a house...?
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    There are 5 spaces in a row & this is situated near the middle of them. My car was parked at the end.

    Is 9pm now on day 14 (Sound like I am in the BB house!) so will give it an hour & then just have to write what I feel is best unless someone can help me more.

    Thanks in advance
