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.
Hi I parked in a disabled bay where the signs are 20ft away from my car and can be obscured from view by other cars .I parked and drove into the space without being able to see the sign. This was in a park where I am told they dont have to mark the floor but shouldnt the sign have been in view of the space? how can I find info on how a disabled space should be marked by law....if there is one.Contravention is listed as 4(30) royal parks and other open spaces regs 1997 and sec2 of parks regs (ammendment) act 1926.
Royal Parks car parks are not public highway as such so there is no legally approved signage for the car parks. You have not been charged with parking in a disabled bay but 'parked in a place other than one for the time being appointed for the parking of a vehicle of that description by the Secretary of State.' The bay is set aside by the secretary of state for disabled drivers so the only defence you can use is the signage was not clear and hope the magistrates agree.
ps please try not to start new threads on the same topic as you have already posted.
I wonder why they put disabled bays in royal parks. The Royal Parks Agency regulations are silent on the subject, meaning that the exemption for Blue Badge holders applies.
