If she was not parked on the road and was not parked on the pavement, where was she parked?my wife has just receved a pcn for parking in a restricted street during prescribed hours , she was not parked on the road and not causing an obstruction on the pavement is this right ?The mind of the bigot is like the pupil of the eye; the more light you pour upon it, the more it will contract.

Are you for real,
Parking on the pavement is a big no no. You dont have to be causing an obstruction.
You can be fined for two wheels on the pavement also.make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
and we will never, ever return.0 -
So the ticket was issued at the time the vehicle was parked in the road named on the ticket?
Why do you say she was not obstructing the pavment, could a pedestrian walk through or under her car?
She was obstructing the square footage covered by the car.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0 -
The ticket will be for "unnecessary obstruction" in all likelihood. Any blockage of a footpath can be deemed as unnecessary.she was parked on the pavement not causing any obstructionsThe mind of the bigot is like the pupil of the eye; the more light you pour upon it, the more it will contract.

Does she think you can just park anywhere, pavements are for pedestrians not car parks.0

This refers to waiting restrictions indicated by yellow lines. Waiting restrictions apply to the carriageway, pavement and verge. If there's yellow, you must not park there at all (during the resticted times) so that means you shouldn't try to circumvent the restriction by parking in goofy places like on the footpath.parking in a restricted street during prescribed hours0 -
From the highway code :-
Introduction
Many of the rules in the Code are legal requirements, and if you disobey these rules you are committing a criminal offence. You may be fined, given penalty points on your licence or be disqualified from driving. In the most serious cases you may be sent to prison. Such rules are identified by the use of the words ‘MUST/MUST NOT’.
Rule 244
You MUST NOT park partially or wholly on the pavement in London, and should not do so elsewhere unless signs permit it. Parking on the pavement can obstruct and seriously inconvenience pedestrians, people in wheelchairs or with visual impairments and people with prams or pushchairs.0
