    So just to be clear here, APCOA can only claim against the driver and not the registered keeper. So a reply not divulging who the driver was, is sufficient! Can the driver later be identified and taken to court. Bearing in mind that the vehicle was photographed on camera as well as the driver, and they have provided images.

    Thanks guys I will get appeal in as advised using the following template/words, 

    This is an appeal by the registered keeper - No driver details will be given. Please do not bother with your known fishing expedition in an attempt to get driver details to try and get around the fact there is no keeper liability (and never can be under POFA).

    Due to this being airport land you will be well aware there is no keeper liability due to the byelaws in force and the fact this is not relevant land.

    As there is no keeper liability then liability cannot flow from the driver to the keeper and thus is an auto win @ POPLA. Please therefore cancel the notice or issue a POPLA code where you will auto withdraw

    If you waste your time asking for driver details this will be ignored and you will still lose at POPLA if you dont cancel the PCN

    So let's save my time and yours and cancel this PCN you simply cannot win this (and you know it).

    I'll let you know the outcome

    We know the outcome but yes please. Helps others who also doubt it is this simple!
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
