Right, all helpful advice is welcome (dearly needed). I seem to be making myself quite the collection of tickets :/
I was dropping my niece to school and stopped for all of 3 minutes to let her out and say goodbyes when I noticed an officer lurking behind the car. The car wasn't fully in the red route bay but admittedly was partially inside. Tried to appeal to the officer to stop but he continued on tapping away so I just shot off. Not my finest hour but I've gotten fed up with this pcn malarkey. Is there any grounds for appeal? There's not photos included in the notice could I angle for lack of evidence? Attached below is the postal notice and the road sign. http://imgur.com/a/wtS35ic |

If certain then the challenge is based on that you believed that you had cleared the Red Route bay when you stopped to let your niece out and only realised that there may have been a minor incursion when you saw the CEO.
That you apologise for driving off in the heat of the moment but would they please consider the minimal incursion, if any, as de minimus and cancel the PCN using their discretion even if they believe the incursion happened. |

And you still think I was quick off the mark? You made no mention in your first post of 'half a wheel', your word was 'partially'. So why would you want to angle for lack of evidence when now your position should be that you wish there was evidence...to support your claim of 'half a wheel'? Because you drove off, you have a postal PCN. The discount is available. The authority do not obligate themselves to re-offer the discount in the event of unsuccessful reps. Unless other posters know that the probability is that they would, I stand by my earlier advice to pay the discount, however unpalatable and apparently unhelpful this might be. We're dealing with optimum outcomes, not wishful thinking. You have no evidence that supports your claim of de minimis and given that you drove off and, according to you, the CEO did not ( have time to) take photos, then there's not a snowball's chance in hell that an adjudicator would accept your claim. |
