Fine for parking in parent & child bay - delivered to home 24 hours later

Just to get this clear.
You parked at the store, saw nothing on the windscreen that evening, but the following day you found one attached to your windscreen? Or was there a longer time gap?Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

OP you say the ticket was hard to read, is it definitely for your car?0

I think it's highly unlikely that a DVLA enquiry has been made. Either it was there all along, unnoticed, or the parking weasel saw you getting into your car without a child and decided to follow you. I must say the latter doesn't sound terribly likely, but who knows what goes on in what passes for a brain in these people?
Was your car parked on the street overnight or on your own property?Je suis Charlie.0 -
The windscreen ticket is not POFA compliant. It has to be put on at the time, not later. Only the driver will be liable.
While waiting for the ntk, start the ball rolling by complaining as keeper to the DVLA and the BPA .
When you say the shop have had complaints, is this about tickets being posted on cars at people's homes, or just tickets in general?Dedicated to driving up standards in parking0 -

Bucketing down with rain. Place looks like a ghost town. In the store for 20 minutes. Its not a crime to park in a P & C bay, maybe an inconvenience - you cant shoot me down for inconveniencing someone. Geez cut me some slack.0 -

They complained about tickets in the P & C bay. Its right outside the petshop and convenient if you are buying 25kg bags of dogfood and all the bits and bobs one spends money on in these shops.0 -

I eventually managed to figure out that it was for my car.0 -

Absolutely sure, it was raining on the way home so I had to use the wipers and it would have hit the ticket.0 -

Although you are obviously lazy and inconsiderate you have no need to pay any PPC money, however perhaps in future you might be more considerate of others.
And buy a waterproof jacket
