Free Traffic Legal Advice

The picture of the sign is mainly unreadable, but seems to refer to a different sign anyway. Is there a requirement to enter the car’s VRM in the pub, for example? Was this done, if so? What does “purchase can be proved” mean? Purchase of a ticket to park?

The original PCN can be obtained with a Subject Access Request to Euro Car Parks if it’s important.

we regret to hear that you had this experience with us. The car park is owned by Euro Car Parks which switched over in 2023, there are 11 signs in the car park and 2 upon each entrance, with a tablet to enter your car registration. also, as the signs state co op customers have half an hour free.

took me a few seconds to find

So the driver parked for almost two hours without entering the VRM on the tablet in the pub, which is a requirement that ECP will claim is clearly required on its signs.

The original PCN may reveal a technical defence especially if the driver has not been identified, but it may not.

Thanks so much. I've passed this onto the driver and they called the pub and have cleared the pcn with euro there and then.
