Tower Hamlets Code 1 (towed and impounded for parking on a single yellow line
« on: »
Hello all.

I live in a permit controlled street -- I have a permit, but parked on a yellow line when it wasn't controlled -- my plan was to go to the gym, but plans changed and I forgot I needed to move the car later.  :-\

Next day I discovered my car has been towed away and impounded, thus relieving me of £265 -- the ticket was for 12.38PM and the car was towed about three hours later.

After I paid, the ticket was stapled to the receipts with the photocopy information about appealing (below). The yellow bag was still on my windscreen (with a notice saying it's illegal for anyone except the driver to remove the notice).

Also, I'm not sure if it'll help me at all, and I don't usually share this stuff, but (among other things) I have Asperger's Syndrome and ADHD, and therefore am classed as vulnerable, but I do not have a blue badge or anything like that.

You can use this draft: https://www.ftla.uk/civil-penalty-charge-notices-(councils-tfl-and-so-on)/tower-hamlets-code-01-restricted-street/msg1158/#msg1158

Thank you -- however, I was given three printed pages of appeal information stapled to the ticket (as uploaded above). Is this not what they are supposed to do?

It is, but they're meant to give you information about the current law, not about a law that was abolished last year. The 2007 regulations ceased to have effect on 31 May 2022, they updated the PCN and the Notice to Owner templates, but it seems they forgot to update the paperwork they hand out at the pound.

Hello.

As expected, my challenge was rejected -- here is the paperwork:

Ironically, the council have since painted a new parking bay in exactly the same spot they towed me from.  ::)

Would you like me to represent you at the tribunal?

As with all towing cases you've paid all there is to pay, so as long as there's an arguable point to be pursued, there's no risk in carrying on.

Yes please - what do you need from me to proceed?
