Hi All,
I've just been ticketed whilst on a single yellow line in high street. I should have checked the signs to see if I was allowed to park - but I failed in this case. I was observed for 5 minutes - isn't it supposed to be longer? I was parked behind saloon car in this picture - I have a very small car so I was neatly within the lines parked on the single yellow. Here is a copy of the ticket https://imgur.com/iL9D4lj Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. This post has been edited by AdamTicketed!: Fri, 12 Jan 2018 - 20:48 |

PCN time is 18.53
Restriction sign seems to be 8AM to 4PM Mon to Sat https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.5080895,-...3312!8i6656 But not clear on streetview so needs checking ! |

Hi All, I've just been ticketed whilst on a single yellow line in high street. Are you sure you weren't on the double yellow? -------------------- If you would like assistance with a penalty charge notice, please post a thread on https://www.ftla.uk/index.php

There are double kerb blips, so its No Loading as well as No Waiting where the double-yellows are, therefore if the OP was partly on the DYLs, a 5 minute observation time is reasonable. As DD says the sign for the bay is not very clear in GSV so we would need a photo, and also council photos of the contravention if there are any. GSV is April 2017, so restriction times could have changed.

Thanks everyone for the replies I managed to get a hold of Slough Councils Parking Enforcement Policy. For Contravention Code 01 - the observation time is set to 5 minutes. I think I'll just pay up. I just wanted to add - the prescribed hours are 0800 to 2100 - so I was clearly there during the 'prescribed hours' Thanks again everyone!
