DUPLIC PLS IGNORE Could anyone point me to a standard Double Dip Defence for Civil Enforcement?

That's it really. I need to submit a Defence for a CE PCN at a customer carpark which is entirely controlled by ANPR. You get 1.5 hours to park, no ticket machines. Driver made 2 visits in ones day, SAR confirms they only recorded the in of visit 1 and the out of visit 2 (busy carpark).

I'm struggling to think of much to put in my defence as it is so straightforward. I've read through all the defences on the sticky thread, and a double dip one where there were 2 entrances, but can't find much for such a simple case. Any pointers/tips or suitable defence would be greatly appreciated.

    You will need evidence that you were somewhere else in the same vehicle.

    Anywhere that has CCTV or ANPR and has caught you would be perfect. Free to get using a SAR.

    Or a statement form an independent witness

    Then fill your boots with compo under Data Protection Act
    Private Parking Tickets - Make sure you put your Subject Access Request in after 25th May 2018 - It's free & ask for everything, don't forget the DVLA :D

    You have now had a whole month to write your Defence.

    Now, two days before your Defence is due to be filed you have suddenly woken up.

    Please continue your quest on your original thread and allow this thread to die.

    Duplicate thread - please ignore.

    yes the SAR only came through last week while I was out of the country (remember I had no details from the driver) - apologies, I didn't realise it would be better to add to the existing thread. Will do so now.
