    yes as long as the car is privately registered to the home address.
    If its a lease/hire or company car he will need more advice.

    And don't forget to tell all of your family and friends! This advice applies to ALL parking companies and tickets, other than those issued by Councils or Police or TFL, which you MUST NOT ignore!

    Have a good day.

    Yes forgot to ask if it's a lease/hire car that does complicate it a bit. Thanks, Vax.
