Hi All,
One of our vans got ticketed whilst unloading on non-restricted double yellow lines. We appealed with supporting evidence but this got rejected because the van was near a junction. Can anyone see anything incorrect about the council's letter before we pay? Cheers. |

A matter of preference.
I would have included.. ..your letter dated *** in which you acknowledge that I was engaged in loading etc. which is an exemption as regards the prevailing traffic order but that you have not accepted my representations for one or more of the following reasons: 1. The TMA and TSRGD 2016 disapply the exemption when a vehicle is parked 'on or near a pedestrian crossing or junction' 2. 'The vehicle is not causing an obstruction.... ..and so on.. Draw out and shine the spotlight on their stupidity. It's all grist to the adjudicator's mill which would grind Mr Simpson. They'd be lucky to escape without an award of costs against them, in fact if you play this right and they're stupid enough to continue with a NTO/NOR I would virtually guarantee an award their response and reasoning is SOOOO bad. But you have to play them, a bit like anglng except here you'd be angling for costs Too late now, but we could include in any formal reps. Surely more than one the council pic!
