    A simple check of your insurance documents would determine who was insured to drive your vehicle on those dates. 

    No it wouldn't, it would show some, but not all.  Many people have third party insurance for vehicles not belonging to them.
    Many registered keepers only have one person insured to drive the vehicle.

    No it would not.

    And the insurance policies of many registered keepers allow them to drive other vehicles not belonging to them.

    Most insured keepers I know have at least 2 people insured , the keeper and spouse , as a bare minimum , I cannot think of anyone in my family that has lone insurance , not one person at all !

    Even my newly qualified grand daughter has her boyfriend named on her policy

    You really do not understand simple legal matters.  

    My insurance enables me to drive any roadworthy vehicle in the UK that I have permission to drive.  

    Advising the OP that only those insured by the keeper could be the driver of a vehicle and therefore liable for parking charges is preposterous and really unhelpful in their time of need.
