PCN Appeal Rejected
Comments
-
Pavement parking is formalised on that street so you are supposed to park two wheels on. The bay markings showing you exactly where to park are so badly maintained you cannot be expected to comply. Anyway, they didn't do me for parking outside the bay, they did me for having wheels on the pavement. You are supposed to park with wheels on the pavement - there's a sign that tells you to.0

Take heed of what Bagshot and H C Andersen have been telling you on pepipoo. It seems they think you can win it so let them help you. The next stage here is for you to draft formal reps and copy & paste your draft for them to comment on. Try to include every relevant point of appeal they have given you.
Clark Kent is a helpful poster to but he posts in everyone's full knowledge that he works for Council Traffic Dept! That's why he raised the point that you were blocking the pavement - which it looks like you were.
But please don't think that doesn't mean you have not got a case. It looks as though the others are saying it was the wrong contravention code on the PCN (should have been 'parked outside of bay markings'). Wheels on the pavement seems a daft contravention code to use in place where you CAN park that way!PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

noted and thanks for the info
i can see all sides of the arguments but my gut feeling was I am being done for parking on a kerb when it clearly states you can
