Just to confirm that it was less than 30 sec to let me in the car was the length of time we were 'parked' at the stop and there was NO other place to pull in. No buses were around in fact apart from the other cars parked there were no other cars. Please can someboday clarify what is stopping, waiting and parking?

It is a PCN 47 issued by Wandsworth Council, unfortunately I will not be able to do this will Monday. It looks like a standard form with my car details included

I recently got a PCN for 'parking' at a bus stop, and was wondering if for the below there were any grounds to appeal. The car was not parked as it had momentarily stopped so that my boyfriend could pick me up from an evening class. I would have used public transport only I had been approached by a strange man the week before which creeped me out. Unfortunately all of the parking bays were taken so he stopped for a moment to let me in. I know about not parking at a bus stop, but surely this was not parking and it did not have a red line around it. In addition, the fine said that it was becasue of parking at a restricted bus stop, not sure how you tell it is restricted. This was not marked. I have gone back to the sight at the same time of night and taken photos of the area. Also there was no sign or indication that there was a person there taking photos or that there was in fact a camera (I still don't know which one). I thought that you had to be made aware - hence the yellow boxes, yellow marked and road signs. Yet I saw nothing to indicate my photo was being taken. Any way to appeal this? I would like not to give up my evening class but would not feel safe getting the bus on my own. Many Thanks
