W'ham Council PCN / 24 Not parked correctly in markings of the bay/space / Peach St 30min bay
« on: »
Hi all

On 13/04/26 I was given a £50 PCN by Wokingham Council parked on 30min White-lines Parking bay

Contr: "24 Not parked correctly within the markings of the bay or space"

I basically parked Next to a bay in a shaded (diagnal white lines) area as the main part was full, however the outside was dotted perimiter not solid

PCN Ticket :- CW02847879
Loc: Google Maps Link






Appreciate any advice if i have any appeal grounds

Thanks,

Please post the PCN (both sides) and confirm your vehicle registration number.

Have you looked at their evidence on their website ? Post the photos here if there are any.

If one parked 100m from the nearest parking place, would this constitute 'Not parked correctly....bay or space'?

IMO, no.

Which begs the question: when is a vehicle sufficiently proximate to a parking place that despite no part of the car being within the parking place the contravention is established?

IMO, if no part of a car is within a parking place (as shown in the council's photos), then IMO the contravention can be disputed(if not within a car park which is regulated by different rules).

Wait for others.

Last day of 'risk-free' 14-day period is 26th.
