A really quite disgraceful placement of the sign controlling the bay, but whether this would win at an adjudication is another matter. The bay does have the text "Loading Only" on the carriageway by the bay, and a motorist parking in any marked out bay has a duty to look for the sign controlling the bay. But would this motorist look for a sign that sits almost out of sight below the street name ?

Is there any background info on why your father parked there ? In order to give full advice we need to be in possession of all the facts.

No there is no background that would help really.  He told the attendant that he was loading (has the receipt for a few turnips!) but the attendant said he had already started so couldn't cancel it. 

How far can we go with the low sign?

And is there anything else?

Thank you

What was "a few turnips" ? Weight ? Bulk ?

Watermelons, turnips, I bet they get all sorts of 'loading' stories!  Unfortunately not too many turnips to carry in this scenario.

here as it's a timed restriction the sign is needed and should be better sited but the road markings are sufficient to put a driver on notice

>> what could we say re this

So did he just go shopping or was he picking up preordered things.

Any health issues.

Just noticed they got the car colour wrong - 'grey' instead of beige

Thank you.

So we now need to prepare something... re the low signpost - does anyone know what legislation can we refer to please???
