PCN Overhang

[Debz17]

Hi can anyone tell me if I can appeal a pcn for an overhang I paid for the parking but my bonnet was hung over the single yellow line
Thanks

Also the PCN states parked in a restricted street during prescribed hours even though I’ve paid to park on the street

What were the restricted hours and what period of time did you pay to park. As for the overhang where did this happen - do you have photos?

The council have their pictures you can see the bonnet is hung over the single yellow line. I’ll try upload on here
I was parked in residential parking and pay for permit parking.
This road is a nightmare and have had several tickets because wheels are on double yellows and spent a fortune on parking permit and tickets.
I’m just so sick of paying to park but not having anywhere to park.

If you are in the London area then this is taken from the Civil Enforcement Handbook

a) Vehicle overhang
A CEO should only issue a PCN if the vehicle is parked
incorrectly to the extent that at least one wheel is wholly in
contravention, for example a wheel being wholly outside the
parking bay or wholly on a yellow line. If all of the wheels
are within the confines of the bay but the vehicle is large
and overhangs the bay to such an extent that it causes an
obstruction equal to a normally-sized vehicle with one wheel
wholly in contravention, then a PCN can also be issued. CEOs
must use their judgement on this, and record any evidence
(especially photographic) that proves the contravention.

I can’t upload pics on here. Yes it’s London council It’s overhung you can see but is not causing an obstruction which is even more annoying.
so no grounds to appeal then I’m so angry no word of a lie the amount of money I have paid to this council is a joke.

Thank you for your help
