... and it is impossible to form a contract as the prohibition offers nothing.Car1980 said:Bear in mind the entire premise of forming a contract where stopping incurs a charge is impossible UNLESS they have a specified "stop here, read this contract and understand from this point on stopping will incur a charge" area AND there is a facility for them to refuse the terms of the contract and leave immediately.
You cannot form a contract with a person in a moving vehicle that stopping will incur a charge merely using a no stopping symbol road sign.

Does this blue car belong to you? How can you tell!moneybits said:Thanks again @Fruitcake. Attached are images taken from the terms pdf with a yellow oval where the images are showing the alleged event occured (near roundabout on left). It's outside of the red highlighted area where the service is supposed to be provided. I've also uploaded a picture of the area behind my vehicle as I was exiting the slip area into the short stay car park showing red lines behind the vehicle which I pulled from their excel site. That's where the u-turn occurred.

To date, nobody has been able to obtain a copy of the current contract. In the "old" contract, there are two (contradictory) maps showing the VCS contracted areas, one of which includes the roundabout where the blue car was photographed.
Did the car do a simple U-turn without stopping, or did it stop and reverse/manoeuvre whilst turning round?
If the former, then VCS had no right to obtain and process your personal data, and the DVLA had no right to sell it.
If the latter, do the images taken by VCS prove that the vehicle was stopped?I married my cousin. I had to...I don't have a sister.
