    @bawheid. This is not your thread, it belongs to Davidscott. You won't get advice on someone else's thread. Please open your own, stop hijacking thus one.
    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.

  • Sorry for the confusion, I logged on last time from my ipad, I didnt even know that I must of had an old account on here.

    That bawheid account is mine as well, can admin delete either one of the accounts as I genuinely didnt know that I had both accounts.

    so the question I asked was this.....

    No, use template as is.

    They would have to convince a judge that that is worthy of a charge, in an empty car park.
  • Result, thanks to this forum and the people on it !!! Their reply below.....

    Thank you for your email.

    I have reviewed the photographic evidence (which I have attached for your reference). From these photographs we can see that your vehicle is not over the line and encroaching into another bay however is too long for the spaces on this car park. As our height restriction barrier was taken down to be fixed, we are prepared to cancel this PCN as a gesture of goodwill as in normal circumstances this vehicle could not enter this car park, however we would like to remind you that it is the drivers responsibility to read the signage on site and the terms and conditions of parking.

    We now consider this matter closed.

    Good stuff - I doubt they liked the fact you live in NI as well, they wouldn't have taken you to court!
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
