Parking Charge Notice from TPS

2

Comments

  • I am the registered keeper ( and the only insured driver)

    Whether the driver is insured or not is a matter for the police, not TPS or any other scumbag PPC.
    ...and that they have photographic evidence which also clearly identifies me the driver.

    No they don't. They don't know what you look like! If I showed you photographs of some random people in a car park, could you tell me their names and addresses? Thought not.
    Take the advice on here, and carry on ignoring!

    Thanks for your help :beer:

    You are most certainly not the only insured driver. There is a huge number of them, including me.

    I meant the only driver insured on my policy .... no one else drives the car. So it could only be me driving ( I think )
  • Thanks to everyone who has replied, advised and reassured me.

    Even if you were to declare from the rooftops that you were driving, it doesn't make the charge enforceable.

    If you overstayed on a P&D car park, they might be entitled to a pound. If it was free, there's no loss so they aren't owed a penny.

    This is a mail scam. No money to be made by actually charging what they might be legally owed.

    An unattested photograph has no meaning or weight as evidence.

    Not that is of any import whatsoever in this case but as a general point it should be noted.

    The days of identifying people in court on the day are long gone.
