    2.19 parked/parking

    an instance of a vehicle being caused by the driver to remain stationary other than in the course of driving (excluding instances where the driver has stopped to enable passengers leave or enter the vehicle)

    A vehicle may be deemed to be parked whether or not the driver has left the vehicle or turned off the ignition


    Spells the end of "No Stopping" in airports nonsense?

    "E.2 Wording used in operator notices

    Operators must not use the following terms:

    (anything impersonating a council PCN)"

    Does that mean the pretty yellow/black windscreen envelopes stock will have to be destroyed?.  Maybe the ppc will give them to the LA.

    Interesting to note the deafening silence from @AnotherForumite and others from the PPC side.
    Although it still maybe slightly early for their commentary...

    Don't be confused by the low post count on this account, I've been around many years.....

    A simple answer to help the UK Chancellor of the Handbag would be to increase the levy for PPCs wanting to purchase keeper data from the DVLA (but keep it the same for landowners) to, say £10.
    Much better would be to have a special charge for PPCs based in London and the Home Counties of £1,000 and £10 for everywhere else.

    What is not clear is that if a PPC goes against the rules, they will be banned from the DVLA

    Will it be lifetime ban or a slap on the wrist and back in business after a month ?

    And what happens to PPC's who currently don't use POFA as it seems if they do not use the new code they can be banned.

    And there is nothing about if an ATA behave badly and where to complain.

    All in all this gives the PPC no wriggle room and is a huge clampdown.

    But why wait until 2023 ....... letting the crazzies run riot

    Depends on how good they are at handling words with 2 or more syllables...
