Parking Charges Appeal

[Guest]

Can any one help? The registered keeper of a car I was driving at the time has received a notice of a parking ticket, do I have grounds to appeal?

I drove over an unavoidable bad patch of road which resulted in a loud bang so pulled in at what I believed to be a bus stop on as I now know, private land, to check the tyres were ok, I stopped no more than a minute.*

The date of the contravention is 5 Dec 19. The charge notice was received yesterday (I don't have the letter its with the registered keeper)*

Who is the letter from ?

Hello, couldn't locate the post originally to respond, however I've now registered with the website

So the registered keeper got a letter of charge from excel parking. They used cctv. I'm the driver not keeper. The letter includes photos of the car but not full sequence where i got out checked tyres and around car then left. As per HC if you can get off the road where you have an incident /breakdown then do so.... It is a busy 50mph dual carriageway and i didn't fancy trying to change a tyre on it. As it happens i deemed it safe to continue and checked again twice

I have photos of the faults in the road as for the reason to stop. Would i be correct in saying that a sign isnt notice to the driver so from the date of the incident (05 Dec) to 13 Jan is out of time?

Or should I just pay it?

THANKS IN ADVANCE

Do not hint at who was driving, edit using "the driver......" etc.* Click on report on the first post and ask the mids to edit.

Yes* it it out of time to hold the keeper liable but if the know the identity of the driver then they can come after the driver.

For the registered keeper to respond (the driver is not involved):



Dear Sirs,

I have just received your Notice to Keeper xxxxx for vehicle VRM xxxx

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 deliver the notice within the relevant period of 14 days as prescribed by section 9 (4) of the Act. *You cannot, therefore, transfer liability for the alleged charge from the driver at the time to me, the keeper.

I was not the driver at the time and as there is no legal requirement to name the drive*I will not be doing so.

Any further communication with me on this matter, apart from confirmation of no further action and my details being removed from your records, will be considered vexatious and harassment. This includes communication from any Debt Collection companies you care to instruct.

Yours etc
