Multiple PCN by Hillingdon council
« on: »
Hi,

Last week I parked my car on a road I used to park on. There were no yellow or red lines, but unfortunately, I parked opposite a dropped kerb. I left the car there for a week as I was out of the country. When I returned, I found 6 parking tickets.

I have carefully examined the tickets and noticed some significant inconsistencies. The stated location of the alleged contravention is not the same across all 6 tickets. Although the road itself is the same, the exact location given (e.g. “outside no. 3”) differs on 4 of the tickets. For example, the locations listed include:

Opp LP2 (no idea what LP even stands for)

Opp 2

Opp 6

Opp LP


Given that the location is inconsistent across the penalty notices — all issued by the same enforcement officer — do I have grounds to challenge the tickets on the basis that the information provided is inaccurate?

Not really. The street name is correct and as the PCNs were served to the car, your surely know where the car is ?
You are on a stronger wicket with five of the PCNs, as the car didn't move, and they didn't tow it, so it was a continuoous contravention.  Common law is that you cannot be punished twice for the same offence, so submit reps for Five of the PCNs and pay the discount for the first.  State in your reps that you accept the first PCN and didn't realise at the time you were parked over a footway, but went away for a week so was unable to react to the first PCN.

Please also read this and update your thread accordingly, because we need more information. You never know the contravention may be incorrect, but we can assess when we see one of your PCNs and a GSV link: -
