Hi All
Just wanted to let everyone know i had my day in court today . Case dismissed.
Judge ruled in my favour after looking at my Granddaughters medical letters and agreed straight away that this was indeed an emergency stop for medical reasons.
Vcs put their case forward about Stopping but the Judge seemed totally unimpressed that they had even took this to Court. He asked if they wanted to argue against the medical stop and they tried to use VCS vs Ward saying a stop is a stop. Judge just said they can't compare a mechanical fault to a medical emergency and dismissed the case.
He did ask did i have any legal training or had a Lawyer helped with my defence. Told him it was all from peoples help on the internet and he complimented me on it saying it was excellent so thanks to everyone on here that helped me out along the way, i honestly can't thank you all enough for taking time out to help .

CONGRATULATIONS!
I think this is the third win reported today (none lost). Not a good day at the office for 'PPC World'!
Another VCS one bites the dust!
Now you've won this battle, please don't disappear just yet.
A final Public Consultation is coming.
We need you; motorists need you to help us make a difference forever. What a waste of your time this was, and why should there be such a litigation culture in parking? It's truly horrible being pursued for £100 for no reason, by an ex-clamper aggressive firm, isn't it?Join us in trying to end the conniving PPC and DRA 'added fees' fuelling the court culture.
There will be one window of opportunity later this year. My best guess is in October.
Together, we can stop the rotten parking industry from riding roughshod over the new statutory Code and the charge level caps, and otherwise bullying all motorists forever, using the regulation to gain kudos and status.
If you are not likely to pop back here every week to check, please set up email alerts for this forum and bookmark this thread (below) as we intend that one of us posts on it when the Government opens the Consultation:https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6333989/mse-parking-ticket-appeals-guide-feedback#latest
Read the latest posts there.
The PPC money-grabbers have blocked the new Code by filing for Judicial Reviews. Stopped the declared and much welcomed parking code from February 2022, which stated that added £70 false 'DRA fee' extortion was to be banned and that parking levels would start at £50.
It's on hold. Motorists urgently need it reinstated and the ban on false 'DRA fees' confirmed, to stop the rot.
This year will be your chance to make a difference, plus any other drivers you know (family, friends) who are also fed up to the back teeth with the greedy and unscrupulous parking industry and the stranglehold they have on people.
We need high numbers of real victims to make a point of responding to this final Consultation.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
