Hi,
A friend received this kind gift from an Civil Enforcement Officer for staying longer than the 30 minutes allowed.
I've had a look and as best I can see, the PCN is compliant with The Civil Enforcement of Parking Contraventions (England) General Regulations 2007 (issued under regulation 9).
I've advised to put in an appeal anyway within 14 days -
Something focusing on the fact that she thought she was within 30 mins, but was apparently 2 minutes over. I hope there may be some wiggle room based on the car clock which was 3 mins out and she hadn't noticed (her son was in the drivers seat playing with all the buttons that morning). She saw the Enforcement Officer as she was leaving the car and again when she came back to the car, but thought nothing of it...
Here is a streetview link: (Roughly where the Land Rover is) https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@53.1990733,-...GmOX5hw!2e0
Here is the PCN:
This was the sign:
Anyone got any thoughts on this one? Shall I just compose an appeal and if rejected advise my friend to pay as she is short of cash and would rather pay £25 than wait to see if there is a non-compliant Notice to Owner... missing out on the reduced amount.
Thanks
(Edited for spelling!)
