    great , so they admit that bylaws exist on parking , however this is a trespass charge , NOT a parking offence via a PPC , tell them to do one , if the airport wish to prosecute for trespass , they have 6 mths, to bring charges

    Just worried about the trespass angle. If you are moving, you are not trespassing and free to use the land in question, but the minute you stop, you are trespassing. Not sure that would stand up.
  • they are playing mix n match , bribery to (pay fine) or we go for bylaws , they cannot do both , and bylaws take president , however they get no money


    2nd class ping pong mail , for the next few mths (6 mths total) , for a timeout , then tell em to sod off coz bylaws override muppets

    I have checked the Airports Byelaws which worry me slightly,please see below
    BIRMINGHAM AIRPORT LTD BYLAWS 2004
    PROHIBITED ACTS ON PARTS OF THE AIRPORT TO WHICH THE ROAD TRAFFIC ENACTMMENTS DO NOT APPLY.

    5.(12) PARKIING OF VEHICLES
    Without reasonable excuse park a vehicle elsewhere than in a place provided for that purpose
    Ref BYE-25-00-001 (05)
    Date 10th MARCH 2015

    Should I be concerned regarding the above as I stopped for 3mins on a Red Route Airport Way.

    which proves that the driver was not parked, and under POFA 2012 airport land is not relevant land so the RK isnt liable, only the driver (if you were daft enough to tell them who was driving)

    so as RK you telll them to do one as POFA 2012 isnt relevant, plus its not parking so a parking charge notice isnt valid either , byelaws may be relevant but only against the driver, by the airport authorities/landowner , if they can identify the driver

    I think you are overthinking this

    if the pcn is a parking charge notice, then its appeal by popla (or now the ombudsman)

    if its bylaws, then the landowner must seek to prosecute THE DRIVER under those bylaws , which I have never heard of them doing at any airport
