Private parking tickets / Re: £100 fine for 2 min stop

This wasn;t a ticket on the windscreen, it was a genuine 2 minute stop before moving on.  no ticket person in sight.  the area isn't specified as a no stopping zone.  For anyone outside of the area, the land looks to be part of the train station facilities

I am.  I can head over there on the weekend.

I was actually stopping to load a suitcase into the boot of the vehicle.  Is it worth citing the Jopson v Homeguard case. 

This was a temporary stop for assisted loading, not parking.

This distinction is well established in case law. In Jopson v Homeguard Services Ltd

Or should I just keep to 2 mins isn't sufficient time to establish a contract?

It can therefore reasonably be argued that:

This falls within a consideration period

No acceptance of terms occurred

Therefore no contract was formed, and no charge is due?

Anyone got any advice to challenge this pile of horse 💩

Happened at Bradford on Avon health centre. It’s actually inside the Bradford on Avon train station car park.

Any help on challenging this gratefully received.



it would appear the car was parked in the space marked with the black circle for 2 mins.
