Hi, my wife received a code 27 PCN yesterday issued by the local council and we are looking for advice. The dropped kerb wasn't marked in any way and wasn't noticed by my wife when parking. More importantly whilst we are British Citizens we live in Spain on a permanent basis and have a car with Spanish plates; my question is do DVLA exchange details with the Spanish authorities and vice versa as we were wondering whether to forget the ticket or pay the 50% charge? All help and advice would be gratefully received.

Dropped kerbs don't need to be marked, thought they do need to be lowered for a statutory purpose and for us to check this, you need to give us a link to the location on google street view. If you post up both sides of the PCN in full we can check for issues in the small print.
However ultimately if the car is on Spanish plates, the council will just write it off as they can't serve a Notice to Owner. I've never heard of any council sending an NTO abroad, in all likelihood because even if they sent it, they wouldn't be able to enforce payment. -------------------- I am not on the "motorists's side", nor am I on the "police/CPS/council's" side, I am simply in favour of the rule of law.
No, I am not a lawyer. |

Hi cp8759, thank you for your advice, we thought councils didn't need to mark these kerbs even though most in the street are marked. Thanks
