Mitigation PCN Notice??

Does mitigation ever work for a PCN Notice?
For example driver pulls off road into a car park as baby being ill in the back, pull into car park, clean down baby etc, leave. notice in post showing ANPR for 14 mins and a £ 90 charge.
How can this be a fair charge? and more importantly could mitigation work?

It isn't. It doesn't.
Have you had a PCN and want to appeal it or is this a hypothetical question? The answers you need whatever the reason for your question is in the Sticky thread for NEWBIES.
If you have had a ticket, please don't hang about but start reading and then appealing, but without disclosing who was driving.I married my cousin. I had to...I don't have a sister.

no this is genuine, and have a PCN for £ 900 -
Mitigation won't work because they don't care about fair parking, just the money. Your engine could fall out and they'd still not accept it as mitigating circumstances.
You can appeal to the parking company with mitigation and they'll reject it, but when you appeal to POPLA you need to prove that the invoice is without merit, and there's plenty of well worded examples on here. The main points being that there's no contract, the signs aren't compliant and the £90 is not a genuine pre-estimate of loss.0 -
So you need to revist & read more throroughly, post #1 of the Newbies thread that you posted on earlier, and forget mitigation (assuming this is a private company).no this is genuine, and have a PCN for £ 90
Bazster is right that you have no chance IF you appeal the way you seem to want to (mitigation). But then the Newbies Sticky thread you posted on but failed to read properly it seems, makes that clear and gives you a template appeal example written from the keeper, NOT talking about the circumstances.Not a chance.
FORGET THE STORY OF WHAT HAPPENED.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
