Mike Harrison writes
I think the system should be changed so that when a ticket is
overturned by the adjudictor, the appellant should AUTOMATICALLY be
awarded the amount of the fine as compensation (i.e. higher award if
clamped, towed etc.) , and more at the discretion of the adjudicator
if the council have acted unreasonably or incompetently.

Just so long as the system also means that anybody making a frivolous
claim for compensation has to pay for the associated costs.
