Help Defending A Very Silly PCN From UK CAR PARK MANAGMENT LIMITED

Now you are talking! Much better.

Can't see an Exhibit 6? You need to mention every exhibit.

You could also quote the MHCLG's (currently revived by a 'live' Public Consultation) statutory Code of Practice, specifically linking to it and quoting the definition of 'parking period' near the top of it. You'll see why...

You need to link the judge to the Code of Practice and be sure it's the right version for the date of parking. Have you checked the version? Link it for the judge to read.

Glad you pointed this out, I have been using the newest version!  

Where do I find previous edition? PCN issued 09/04/24

On the IPC's website or by Googling.

Should be on IPC or BPA website whichever association PPC is member of

I'm fairly sure this is the reason I laughed off the initial PCN in the first place! Has it been revived?

2.24 parking period

the length of time that a vehicle has been parked, i.e. left stationary otherwise than in the course of driving, after any relevant consideration period has expired (excluding instances where the driver has stopped to enable passengers to leave or enter the vehicle)

This is not the period between a vehicle being recorded as entering and departing controlled land.

UKCPM are members of both I think, which should I use?

They certainly are not! They are in the IPC AOS. This common mistake is mentioned in the Q&A at the top of the first post of the NEWBIES thread, begging people not to tell us that UKCPM are in both AOS.

Haha, just a bit - there's a Consultation open right now. We've been posting daily about this since July: FIGHTBACK ALERT:

Please do the government's Public Consultation. We need every poster to complete this vital survey before the deadline next week.

We understand that you may need some pointers. It looks laborious, we get that. It doesn't matter; no knowledge is needed except re your own experiences so you can call out a scam industry and you'll protect millions of motorists and help change the law. 

I've written some guidance to help focus new posters on the issues. I've covered almost every question, providing ideas if you agree with our stance on things like DRFs, which we say must be banned.

Ordinary people like you are falling victim to this scam over 18 million times per annum. Motorists need your voice added please.

CLOSES ON FRIDAY 26th SEPTEMBER.
