 Notice to Pay Excess Charge - Same Rules as a PCN?
Hello, I'm very confused. I have recently received a Notice to Pay Excess Charge for overrunning my stay in a car park. I won't bore you with the reasons why I was late but I did bore the Council. They took no notice at all and the charge still stands. I intend to continue fighting my corner and my question is in relation to the legality of the ticket. Does anyone know what specific rules apply to Excess Charge Notices and what information has to be contained within it. I think I understand that they are different from PCNs as they are issued by Parking Attendants and not Traffic Wardens or Police and therefore come under different law. Like I say, I've got confused with the differences. The ticket makes reference to Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 - Section 32(1) & 35(1) and West Wiltshire (Off Street Parking Places) Order 2005 which is different to the statute mentioned by others in this post. Also, I was stupid enough to wait and allow the Parking Attendant 3/4 minutes to finish writing the ticket. I didn't think I was stupid at the time, merely courteous. The time on the ticket was the last thing she wrote, checking her watch before she finished it. Anyway, I digress, what I really need to know if anyone out there can help is the rules applying to what should be printed on the Excess Charge Notice.
Please forgive me if I should have started a new thread or if I have pushed in on this. This is the first time of posting although, possibly not the last. |
