Dropped Kerbs and the law Liverpool City Council

Hi there, I have recently been issued with a fine for parking near a dropped kerb. My wife is disabled, and I was taking her to hospital displaying badge. With my mind on other things, I didnt even notice it. Be very grateful if someone could tell me if I should dispute it or just pay it. A simple 'Keep clear for wheel chairs' sign would have alerted me, or a more brightly visible line , as I am over half of it. I would have thought this maybe a bit of a common mistake. It is Liverpool City Council traffic who issued the fine, and would think this is a bit of a money spinner

As we major on private parking tickets here, PePiPoo will be your best bet for council tickets. Register there but please note that a Hotmail address won't work - try using a throwaway Gmail account instead if you do have trouble registering, and post a new thread; here's your link:Read the sticky 'Read this before you post' as well as reading through some of the other threads there ahead of posting your own details, to get the hang of what information they need from you in your opening post - but as a minimum you will need to post redacted photos/scans of all correspondence you've received from the council (both sides, if appropriate), as they need to see all the small print.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.
