Free Traffic Legal Advice

I was feeling unwell and drowsy on the motorway and ended up overstaying at the service station on the motorway, I am now being threatened to go to court or pay £263.32. I am unsure of what to do I need help. I have attached the letter which they have sent to me.

On 05/04/2023 I received a PCN for parking longer than the maximum period, I was in a petrol station queuing up to wash and hoover my car. It is a maximum stay of 15 minutes with no return within an hour, but there was a queue of cars in front of my vehicle trying to access the jet wash and hoover. I later find out that inside the shop of the petrol station you can register your vehicle so that you don't get issued a ticket, which isn't made clear on the signage. After not responding to Euro Car Parks LTD they have now escalated the matter to the Civil National Business Centre Northampton where I am being taken to court and threatened a CCJ. I have also decided that I will not pay the company and will try to fight the matter with the court, the only issue is I don't know how to respond on my defence. I never managed to keep any of the initial letters that were being sent to me by Euro Car Parks. I have attached the particulars of claim.
