Thread: Penalty Chargeon Parking Ticket?

Hi
I got a ticket operated by strert camera waiting on a single yellow line (no kurb line). I was in the car and the duration of my waiting is 3 minutes and 5 second.

1- Wasn't i allowed waiting time of 3 minutes? normally with parking attendant they must come and tell you to move.

Apart from this the written data on the pcn indicates the time osf parking at 14.13.00 but the time on the picture indicates 14.11.16.

2- Due to this doesn't this make the ticket technically wrong therefore should be cancelled by the westminster council?

3- There was no sign on the street to notify drivers of the presence cameras to be used for parking offences. Shouldn't there be a sign by Law?

Thanks in advance.

A single yellow line means no waiting at all.

If you parked for 3 minutes then you where probably parked at both 14.11 and 14.13, so no it would not invalidate the PCN

Westminster is covered in cctv warning signs they do not have to be in every street, the warning not to park is the yellow line.
Thanks in advance.

Unless you where loading or dropping off passengers, which would be evident on the cctv you cannot park on a SYL whilst its in operation.

Thanks for quick reply.

Doesn't parking on yellow line means a parking attendant should ask the driver to move? That is what i read on related information about diferrent penalty codes?

Also what if the line itself where it is connecting to double yellow line is not acuratlly drawn. the line across is papped the line.
