Parking Ticket

Hi All

Who can advise on this subject, if I was issued a parking ticket but at the time it was issued the car was not in my possession, it was with a garage being fixed, the garage owner never informed me that a ticket was issued, I only found out when I got a letter through my door for non payment. I appealed this ticket informing them the garage was in possession of my car at the time, even so that my car was SORN, as it was not being used on the road. This ticket has now escalated to court proceedings, how do I stand?

    Ah, not any court then.  But why has it got this far - didn't you appeal again to London Tribunals?

    If this is for a local authority or police issued penalty, you are best taking this over to the Pepipoo forums. We deal with parking charge notices issued by unregulated private parking companies.

    You certainly can - and indeed did.   :smile:

    Rather than anyone writing a long explanation, just stick pepipoo forums into google for your answer.
