Parking in bay limited to 30 mins

I'm asking this question because I simply cannot find the answer.
Suppose I park my car in a bay marked "Parking limited to 30 mins. No return for one hour" and leave after spending 20 minutes there and drive home.
My partner takes my car out an hour later and parks in the very same parking bay.
Is she committing an offence?
Does the "No return for one hour" apply to the car or the driver? Or to both together?
I'm sure this must have happened to someone at some time. Anyone got any ideas?

Council or private parking land - BIG difference!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. .

Private parking companies very rarely seem to issue tickets on this basis as for them driver liability countsDedicated to driving up standards in parking0

You need to ask on PePiPoo - they are the council tickets experts. Here's your link:

I'm not sure how inclined they are to answer hypothetical questions, given how busy they are with real issues, but someone may have a quick answer for you.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum.
