Parking ticket - advice, please?

I don't s'pose for a minute this makes any difference whatsoever but I'd look a right plonker if it turned out to be some devastating legal loophole! To be valid the ticket must be either handed to the driver or fixed to the vehicle. However, I suppose you must argue whether to place it under the wiper was sufficient to 'fix' it to the vehicle. Around Hammersmith Broadway there are signs on the lampposts stating: "Parking Restrictions Enforced By Camera. Motorists committing parking offences will receive a ticket by post" I have always assumed these to be an empty and unenforceable threat. No, Hammersmith are piloting a scheme where parking contraventions detected by CCTV are enforced by sending the PCN to the registered keeper. Also, there are currently six boroughs enforcing bus lane regulations using CCTV cameras (London Boroughs of Newham, Croydon, Hammersmith and Fulham, Ealing, Wandsworth and Southwark). In addition, applications from the Corporation of London and the London Borough of Lambeth have been approved and it is hoped that both boroughs will commence enforcement in the near future. The London Local Authorities Act 1996 gave the London boroughs powers to use CCTV cameras to enforce bus lane regulations. The London Local Authorities Act 2000 gave the London boroughs powers to enforce parking contraventions using CCTV cameras. Robin |
