Thought I would update this post for anyone reading. I ended up paying a £165 fine today, despite feeling that this ticket was issued unfairly and incorrectly wish I had just paid the reduced £55 fine and saved my mental health.

EIR stands for The Environmental Information Regulations 2004.Anyway, at this point in time I would suggest you simply make the same representations again, there's no need to add anything.Hi CP8579, copuld you kindly advise me on what to do asap. by my calclulations i have to return the appeal form by tomorrow! Thank You in Advance. Simran

Dear CP8759,I want to express my sincere gratitude for your invaluable assistance in the parking forum. Your guidance has been instrumental in my efforts to appeal an unjust parking ticket.I'm reaching out to inform you that I've recently received a 'Notice to Owner' document, following the rejection of my initial appeal. I noticed that you messaged me on October 17th, mentioning 'EIR,' which I've since learned stands for 'Evidence of Irregularity.'Would it be advisable to include these three images/items when making my representation? Should I provide a detailed explanation of the situation, or should I keep my message concise? I'm feeling quite nervous about this appeal/representation, and any guidance you can provide would be immensely appreciated.I note one of the pictures discusses parking on a dropped kerb, i just wanted to clarify this spot is not actually a dropped kerb (nor is it double yellow lines as a user on pepipoo seemed to think)https://photos.app.goo.gl/fVP2yNusQRb2gkhh6Thank you once again for your support.Best regards,Simran

Hello everyone,I'm new to this forum, and I'm seeking some advice regarding what I believe to be an unfairly and confusingly placed parking ticket. Any help or guidance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.Here's the situation: I parked in a spot that is commonly used by parents dropping off their children at the nearby Primary school. My intention was to drop off my kids and attend a Healthy Lifestyle talk at the school. However, upon returning to my car, I was dismayed to find a Parking Charge Notice (PCN) on my windshield. I admit that I made an oversight by not closely examining the blue sign on the lamppost near my car. I was misled by the fact that the entire length of the rest of the road permits drivers to park on the kerb.I want to highlight that my pictures clearly show that I was not obstructing the pavement in any significant way. A wheelchair could easily pass through the space I occupied. Moreover, if I had parked with all my wheels on the road, it would have almost certainly obstructed the road, which is typically very busy with school drop-off traffic, as well as making it very difficult for cars to enter & leave the driveway opposite my parking position.What adds to my frustration is that I always make an effort to park legally in this area, despite it often being filled with illegally parked cars during drop-offs. These illegally parked cars frequently block residents' driveways and park on double yellow lines. Strangely, I have never seen a traffic warden in this area before, which makes it all the more perplexing that they happened to be present at 9:30 AM when the school drop-off traffic had already dissipated.I have included links to all the relevant evidence, including photos, two short videos that depict (1) the surrounding area where I parked, and, perhaps most importantly, (2) a video of a drive along the road where I received the PCN (I pass the space at approximately 0:23 seconds into the video). Additionally, I've included a Google Street View link that shows a car parked in the exact position I was in for reference. Please note that I tried to avoid taking photos in the direction of the school as there were children playing in the playground at the time.https://photos.app.goo.gl/EmvnZwbR2YCcpF7R8https://maps.app.goo.gl/gphpdrCYhW9PWguX9I sincerely appreciate any insights or advice you can offer in resolving this situation. Thank you for taking the time to read this and assist me in understanding my options. I will try to closely monitor responses so feel free to request further informationBest regards,S
