  • Parking Causing an Obstruction And Double Yellow line

    I have 2 ongoing Parking Disputes 1 For Obstruction and 1 For waiting on Double yellow lines both in a private road.

    The Driver left the car by some gates to a car dealer storage yard (Closed) but not near enough to cause an obstruction.

    The driver was stationary on double yellows at the junction to the high road waiting for 2 minutes to pull out, are yellow lines on private roads enforceable ?

    The car owners reply to the Parking Co. :- "You have failed to comply with the requirements of Schedule 4 of The Protection Of Freedoms Act 2012 namely, but not limited to, failing to give the invitation to keeper in the format prescribed by section 9 (2) (e) of the Act. You cannot, therefore, transfer liability for the alleged charge from the driver at the time to me, the keeper.

    There is no legal requirement to name the driver at the time and I will not be doing so.

    I do not expect to hear from you again, or your debt collectors, except to confirm that no further action will be taken on this matter and my personal details have been removed from your records.

    Yours etc"

    They Rejected this letter stating they complied.


    After numerous letters (all Ignored) threatening legal action the Owner has not been threatened with court action see letters the latest letter is at the end

    The Owner was thinking writing back with this:-

    Dear sir's, We have received numerous letters from your self's demanding payment for parking on private land, Firstly can I have a copy of the agreed contract to park on your land as the driver cannot of entered into an agreed contract due to lack of signage , there are no signs on posts entering into the land stating the driver is agreeing to a contract there is no signage on the walls to where the allege parking infringement occurred, as for Obstruction what was driver obstructing? the car was no where near the gates of the car storage yard and the storage yard was closed, the car was not parked on double yellow the car was stationary for 2 minutes waiting to pull out of the junction to the main road also the costs demanded are unacceptable as no losses occurred by your company as the PCN's are invalid
    your's

    Thoughts? Thankyou!

    For double yellows to mean anything they have to comply with the requirements (Bars at the ends) and there has to be a Traffic Regulation Order (available on-line). In their absence, the double yellow line is lierally meaningless
