Free Traffic Legal Advice

Thank you both once again!

The driver did see a 'notice to driver' on the windscreen. Advice from an earlier post was to wait for the notice to keeper to arrive in the post.

I'd be interested to learn the relevance of this. I'm assuming it has some based on your question, although you seem to think it has little bearing on the course of action you have already laid out.

Many thanks once again!!

Hello FTLA,

We would appreciate any help you could offer with regard to the follwoing case:

On the 11th November 2024, the driver parked at the end of Back Fields Lane beside the end of the terrace building wall. See location image on Google Street View below. The car was parked at the end of the terrace fairly level with the wall, and a little further along than the black Nissan in the Google Street View.

See Google Street View of the location:

This wall is long enough for two cars to park along, and it was covered for a long time in graffiti (it has since be removed). There were two signs present, one partially covered in graffiti, the edges of graffiti overrunning the sign as you can verify - see attached photos. NOTE: this is not the car in question parked in ther photo - (it reads ‘Parking for Knightstone Staff and Contractors Only’, the other surrounded by graffiti (it reads Warning Private Land etc’ - see close up photo).

Additional replicas of these signs are placed on a number of surrounding parking spots, but not on all. The graffiti on that wall has only recently been removed, the ‘Parking for Knightstone etc’ sign remains, the other is presently absent, but without the graffiti, the sign is clearly visible, and not obscured. This is especially relevant for someone like the driver, who has a congenital visual impairment which compromises visual perception and recognition, but does not disallow a driving license.

On January 20th 2025, I, the registered keeper, received a parking charge notice - see attached redacted copy.

We would greatly appreciate any help you could offer us to appeal this parking charge. Please don’t hesitate to contact if there is any omission of information or further clarification required.

Hello and good morning,

I would like some advice with regard to an ongoing parking fine please.

The driver parked on Backfields Lane, Bristol on a flat area adjacent to the cobbled road with appearance of old, badly worn double yellow lines on it, outside unit 19 - see photo with parked BMW (not the car in question). Also, other photo which shows confusion about parking here as so many cars regularly use this area.

Ticket left on windscreen. Notice to keeper received. Appeal made, and declined - see attached redacted copy for your assessment.

I would greatly appreciate any help or advice you can offer.

Many thanks,

J
