PCN for parking on Single Yellow

Gaur

Hi
Today I got a ticket for parking on Single yellow.




Even though I had paid the parking charge using the internet app.

The parking warden (CEO) told me that as per the sign(attached) you can only park in bays.



But I am not sure. Can someone please look at the sign and advise if I should appeal the fine with the council.

I have attached parking sign on that street as a pic in this message.


Parking sign read:

P
Mon - Sat
Permit Holders E
or
Pay at Machine
Display Ticket
Max Stay 2 hours

Have you passed a driving test in this country? Or even read the Highway Code?


You can appeal, but it will be a waste of your time.

Hi,

For some reason I cant see any image that you have attached, nevertheless you have described the sign saying parking restrictions during Mon-Sat.

You cant park on a single line at any time during these restrictions ie: Mon-Sat. There are normally times also displayed ie: 9am-5-pm or between 10am-14.00pm (examples). After these times or before these times is okay, but during is a no, no.

So to clarify, if you parked on a single line during a restricted DAY or TIME period then your fine is legal. If there were parking bays near-by with or without meters this is here you should have parked, and this is what you paid for when you used your mobile app. NOT for parking on a single yellow line.

If you were loading or unloading this opens another discussions as you are allowed unless otherwise stated. Before parking anywhere, look for the sign-posts around as these will inform you of any rules that apply in the area you may want to park.

Sounds like you paid for parking but parked outside of the bay, maybe on wheel on the single yellow line.

I would pay up, it is a legit ticket not one of the private parking charges.

Thank you guys for clarity. I guess I was in the wrong. I should have parked in the bays. Anyways I learnt my lesson.
