Horizon Scotland Private Parking Fine

If you absolutely must reply then just send them this:
Dear Horizon
I am in receipt of your notice in which you claim the driver of my vehicle is liable for a parking charge.
As you are well aware, there is no keeper liability in Scotland, you must take the matter up with the driver directly.
I will not respond to further correspondence.
Name (Registered Keeper)
One thing to be aware of is that although single PCN claims are incredibly rare in Scotland, Scottish judges don't like the "registered keeper won't ID the driver" defence and will often demand to know who the driver was. It's OK if keeper is not the driver, but less so if they are the same individual.
Always remember to abide by Space Corps Directive 39436175880932/B:
'All nations attending the conference are only allocated one parking space.'

There are thousands on here and every time we answer this same question, we've made it clear that the law invoking keeper liability on private land will NOT apply retrospectively.Slaver said:@Umkomaas there is another thread somewhere on this platform regards Scottish private parking PCNs . Its clearly only speculation but it did make me think
Of course it can't! Totally ignore the PCN if the landowner/retailer won't cancel it.
