Free Traffic Legal Advice

Hi all,

Can you please help here?

Usually I'd upload photos etc, but I don't think it's needed in this case (correct me if I'm wrong).

Essentially, parked at my work car park as usual. Put the permit on my dashboard, left the car, paid the ticket (permit works on a pay on arrival basis).

Came back to a fine and found my permit on the floor. Reason for the fine is "Parked in a staff permit holders bay without a valid staff permit".

I understand the inspector of course couldn't see the permit given it fell off, but surely I can contest this? It's not a sticky permit, just rests on the dash essentially.

What do I do? How do I phrase it?

Any advice is much appreciated. Thank you!

Thank you for your help. As you correctly stated, first step was the employer, who has now had this cancelled for me! A great win, thank you!
