Sorry, I seemed to have missed what has been drafted.

What paragraph am I sending to the ZIP email?

The email address is ukviolations@zipcar.co.uk. 

I'm a little bit confused by how to proceed. Could anyone clarify?

Thank you all for your help. I have contacted zip and they have given me an email that I can contact. How might I best word my litigation against Zip in my opening email?

Many thanks,

Thanks for your help. @cp8759 do you think I have a case here? I believe the signs are blocked by the overgrown trees, and I have gone to the location to take some photos and videos of the trap

I used a Zip car on the 3rd of May. While turning off a roundabout at 9.44pm, I was captured by a camera going in to a non-motorised turning.


I believe there was in-adequate signage for the contravention. The tree clearly blocks the sign as your turning on to the roundabout. In the dark, with no road markings, or plant pots to show that the road is only accessible via a bike, I have no clue how I was supposed to see it. The road was wide open for a car to drive down it. Normally these sort of traps are between certain hours, and during the day, so you can see them. 


My fear is that now Zip Car have paid the violation, I can no longer challenge it. Is that correct? Or is there a way around it. Zip car charge £80 for the violation, and £30 for the processing fee. An eye watering £110 for what I believe was entrapment by Lambeth Council.

Thank you all for your replies. I would greatly appreciate that cp8759.

Two questions:
1) How would we proceed if you were to represent me at tribunal?

2) If they were to reject the appeal, what charges would I be looking at?

Many thanks,

Dear cp8759

Yesterday I had this reply from Tower Hamlets. Marked in the same google drive link as 'Response 19/10/23'

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1yrN5RC_JykqmWl8R4kT0knLNssnOiWjv/view?usp=share_link

In your opinion, is this worth appealing further?

Many thanks,

Ben

Would that be the exact same one as you posted further up this thread? ...

"Dear London Borough of Tower Hamlets,

I challenge liability because the alleged contravention did not occur. My car was parked within a marked footway parking bay, as confirmed by the CEO's photos. I can only assume the CEO issued the PCN in error.

Yours faithfully,"

Hi, my appeal was rejected in July. And I had not seen the email.

I recently received a letter in the post asking for the £130.

Are you still able to make a rep for me?

I've added their response to this post as a PDF. Also In this drive link below if need be.

Really appreciate your help!

*Repost from Fightback Forum*

Dear all,

I received this parking ticket on Thursday of last week. I had a gig at a venue on Brick Lane, and had managed to find a parking spot directly outside. I paid £5 for an hour of parking from 6pm - 7pm. after which the restrictions ended.

I left the gig at midnight. The last thing I expected was to have a PCN as I checked and double checked the timings. I drove off from the spot and a couple minutes later I discover the PCN tucked in the front window.



The offence is described: 'Parked with one or more wheels on or over a footpath or any part of a road other than a carriageway'.



Please could you have a look at their evidence and let me know if I have grounds to challenge? I see faint lines marking the parking bay on one side, but no lines on the other side. The brick changes as the space becomes the footpath. I assumed as long as I was on the darker bricks, I would be ok.

All photo evidence is found via this google drive link: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/17d1...gqh?usp=sharing

I understand I have left this later then desirable to appeal, but any help at this stage is much appreciated.


Thank you,

John
