Parking Ticket code 62

jblakes

Hi

I came back to my car to find i had a ticket which was for. " parking with one or more wheels on or over a footpath or any part of a road other than a carriageway". When i came to park there was a car that pulled up at the same time as me on the other side of the road. One double yellows. I pulled up on to the pavement with two wheels so that traffic mainly buses could get though. As the pavement is 3/4 foot wide i was no where near the actual footpath just on the curb.

Do I have any grounds to appeal this?, as i was only doing it to so i wasn't an obstruction for traffic. Also down the road there were a few cars actually parked fully on the pavement that didn't receive a ticket.

Thanks in advance

James

Your best bet is to go to pepipoo.com as they have a wealth of info on council tickets. Have to hand a copy of both sides of the pcn and anything else received. Confirm that this is in London, a googls street view of the location and anything else that will help.

cheers for that. In London? I wasn't in London does that matter? i was in South Yorkshire

Doesn't matter. All London Boroughs plus SOME towns & cities have pavement parking as a contravention. Seems like you were unluckly in that particular town that they enforce that contravention.

I see you've just posted on pepipoo so you should get some help there soon - once you have added pics of the PCN front and back (they need pics!). Here's your thread so others can follow it
