In addition to not saying I drove, or I parked at X do not say anything that could give away the drivers ID at all, avoid he/she/mother/father/gran/uncle/aunt/spouse/brother/sister etc.
Always refer to the parking incident in the third person, so My father ( who is colour blind) parked at Station gardens shopping centre and parked in a bay for magenta cars, and his car was red becomes, from what i understand the vehicle parked at station gardens shopping centre and apparently parked in a bay for magenta coloured cars, however the warden said it was a red carFrom the Plain Language Commission:

Just a reminder after reading a recent thread that is it important, before posting any correspondence from PPCs or their solicitors/debt collectors, that you remove any bar codes or QR codes from such letters, in addition to any personal details.
They could be used to identify you, as well as reveal your personal deatails to anyone who wants to scan them.0 -

I think it would be a good idea to put this in the first post of this thread as many people won't get as far as page 2 so may miss this important advice.

"we have identified your case, we only have one case with this exact claim amount and this thread will be produced in court as evidence against you"
Quite happy to have my assumptions corrected though! And thanks for this thread. I was poised to write my first post "wrong" before I read this!0 -
Kube, you are absolutely right.
It becomes a problem when, having identified the post and related it to a particular incident, then it only takes one small slip in anyone's post on that thread to give away information that you would rather the PPC didn't know.0
