Thread: Parking ticket

I have just recieved a parking ticket. I have also been told that you have 5 minutes grace from the warden starts to write the ticket, untill it is place on the vehicle. I.E. on the ticket time first seen 16.02 Time issued 16.05. As I have not got the ticket to hand (in the car), I can't give exact times or wordage. But I would like to know if there has to be a 5 minute gap between the two times, or is this just an urban myth. I would be grateful if anyone out there can help.

Sorry, urban myth.

Post up a scan of the ticket and the experts here can have a look at it.

How do I attach a scanned item, I'm a bit new to this
Thanks in advance

Scan it into your computer and open it in Paint or similar program. Edit out the personal information and save it

Open an a/c on Photobucket, (here: Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket ), download the file of your scan from your computer onto Photobucket and then post the link from Photobucket in your thread here.

There is no grace period you are either parked illegally or not. The CEO needs to observe your vehicle to assertain whether you are parked legally, which in your case would be if you was loading or not, before issuing the ticket. If you are observed not loading the ticket could be issued instantly, for example if you were seen leaving the vehicle and join a queue at a cash point it would be apparent that loading was not taking place.
