I parked my large touring motorcycle in Padding Station, on arrival at the car park, there was no signage that indicated a dedicated M/C parking area, I parked neatly within a marked car space. I purchased a ticket at the machine and then noticed that there was an area for m/cycles - HOWEVER, the access was up a narrow ramp with chest-high railings and a complete u-bend (360 degree change of direction) part-way up. The size and weight of my machine would have preveneted me negotiating this bend, I could not access the m/cycle parking area. When I returned from my appointment I had a parking ticket, which gave a reason of 'failure to park wihin an authorised space' or something along those lines (I have the ticket somewhere). I phoned the parking company listed on the ticket and explained my case, I was advised that it would be taken no further. However I then received a notice (including photographs) that show my bike parked neatly and fully within a car space, I again phoned and explained, I have now received several letters from a debt recovery company seeking £135 payment of 'fine' and fees. I am of a mind to tale this to court, as there was no signage that inidcated that motorcycles should ONLY park in allocated spaces, similarly if I had a diabled badge, then I can still park in 'normal' spaces if all the disabled spaces are full. Any legal knowledge out there that covers this sort of situation?
