On the 29/05/2025 the Driver was travelling from Warrington to Denbigh with their 11 month old Son. During the journey he became extremely distressed and hysterical, making it unsafe to continue driving.
They stopped at the Northop Hall Services on the A55. They parked in the OK Diner carpark solely to step out of the vehicle, comfort their son and attempt to settle him before continuing their journey. The car remained parked for approximately 12 minutes before departing.
They did not enter the Diner and made no purchase. Due to the stressful nature of attending their child, they were unaware of specific parking terms in place.
Additionally I wish to note that as the registered keeper I had recently moved address which resulted in a delay in receiving correspondence. By the time the notice reached me the amount owed had increased significantly.
