Would this me an appropriate appeal :-

"As I understand there is no legal requirement to name the driver at the time and I will not be doing so, I've also been made aware that the KFC Gatwick is on land under statutory control as it is within the airport boundary and therefore is not relevant land for the purposes of PoFA." ?

Hi

Driver has a Parking Charge from MET Parking Services, for the offence of Failure to validate stay in car park.

The driver has evidence from a Debit Card that they had paid for a meal in KFC,  the driver did not see the signs and was not notified by staff (the driver lives to far to go snap a Photo of the site).

The driver was confused when approaching the Parking Meter when it asked to validate ticket, the driver is still not sure how to do that (does he show receipt to machine ?).  The driver panicked and we assume pressed the button and the Barrier opened, ahh relief.

Should the driver appeal this ? It seems really harsh considering driver had paid KFC for a meal.

Attached a redacted copy of letter.
