Railway taxi drop off
N17
Posts: 4 Newbie
Hi,!
I have a question regarding a car parking issue.
My friend dropped her family off in an area designated as a taxi drop off area on railway land.!
She has a normal car but the taxi rank had an enforcement camera.
No-one approached her and it's been two weeks since this happened; no letter has yet been received.
Has anyone else got experience of this? Can we expect a letter or has the time for this now passed?
Thanks in advance,

Sorry the crystal ball has broke unfortunately. Parking companies tend to do what they like. They may send a ticket there again they might not. It's impossible to say.
If they do get one then get them to post on here. Railway tickets are usually easy to beat.0 -
Impossible to know for sure but she is probably safe IMHO, but never use bus stops of taxi ranks on private land or otherwise. They are not laybys for cars.
People can be legally dropped off or collected on double yellow lines on Council streets.
Steer clear of private car parks altogether and use yellow lines as they are intended (contrary to popular belief, on street, yellow lines are not 'no stopping' areas unless there are also signs and kerb blips creating a loading ban).
DYL are positively intended for the purpose you describe - picking up, dropping off, loading and unloading are all OK and it is daft & asking for trouble, to drive into a car park to do that.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Once again, impossible to say.It's railway land (bylaw) so who issue ticket.
Do the signs give any indication of who operates the car park?
I think you are worrying unduly at this stage.
With no information to go on, there is no advice that can be given to you.
Post again on this thread if anything untoward happens.0 -
