Possible grounds of appeal for this contravention
1. Was there clear road-side signage indicating parking restrictions on each row of parking bays. Signage should ideally be placed at intervals of around 30 metres and within 5 metres of each end of the bay. See diagrams below for more information.
Below we show diagrams of the signs and lines which must be in situ by law and eight other points that will help you decide whether to appeal against your penalty charge notice.
We have even summarised adjudicator's decisions where motorists have won. As this site took over a year to develop and cost a small fortune and in order to support our constant campaigning against this usually unfair assault on the motorist we ask for a small contribution to view the rest of this page and the entire site. For details of what we do for the motorist see the section on the home page. Members also have access to our free helpline via email if they have a specific question. Many thanks.
