Parking ticket - some friendly advice required

[Punkstig]

Paul, you wont like this but my Mrs used to be employed by the police as a proper traffic warden many years ago and you are actually parked illegally. You need to check the code on the ticket though as they may have got it wrong meaning an appeal may work.

Parking within so many feet of the yellow lines is illegal (cant remember the distance) as is parking on the pavement so they could have you on two different things.


Personally, I would shove the ticket up the wardens @rse and tell them to fec off as it is a bike in a bike space but that would be wrong  :pokefun

Yes and no, if he was parked on a grass verge or access road that didn't have its own yellow lines then the lines from the main road extend to the highway border, generally a fence or hedge, in this case as its on a footway he does have an argument it's the incorrect convention code as there is a specific one for parking on the pavement!
