Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
I recently received a pcn for parking in a residents bay whilst displaying a pay and display ticket.
I looked at the sign to see if I could park, and the sign said 'Pay & Display', I preceeded to park my car in the next available space and displayed a ticket.
When I got back to the car, I had a pcn on the windscreen. I had, unknowingly, parked in a residents space. When I looked, there was another sign further up the road which stated that the bays were 'resident'.
I purchased a ticket, parked my car in good faith, and did not see this sign further up the road. I also did not even notice the lines on the road from within my car. There were no signs distinguishing where the bays changed.
Do you think there is a chance that I will be successful in appealing this pcn on the grounds that the signs were unclear and misleading?
