parking tickets!!! - Fry-Up - 18-06-2018

I got one today, altho I was under the impression that lets say you park your car in a pay and display, and haven't got change for the ticket, u have a little lee-way to grab one, and i'd heard that if a traffic warden sees a car without a pay and display ticket, they have to wait a certain amount of time before issuing a fine? can anyone confirm??

it was a council parking ticket, not a police one or private one

just read that back, how nice it is to not have an edit button, what I meant was lee-way to get change for a ticket lol

I think your find this at the discretion of the car park.

Pay and Display means just that. You have to Pay before leaving your car in the car park, they say that if you know you are going into that parking area you should have enough change for the meter.

more the clarification I was looking for thanks

Im not too bothered about what excuses people may come up with, I just want to know if there is any official lee-way offered before a ticket is issued

Thanks Jeff

It's the opposite, they have to wait on a yellow line but pay and display they can issue a ticket as soon as they see a car without a ticket.

That's why you often see wardens patrolling pay and display bays but don't bother so much about cars parked illegally on yellow lines.

get yourself over to pepipoo right now and make a post there in the parking section, scan both sides of the tivket inc the blurb and let the experts give u some advice

the long and short of it is I put the pay and display ticket on my dash and it flipped itself over, (possibly warm engine air coming thru the dash vent below the window)

so altho there was a valid ticket in the window, the details weren't visible, so I know the offence of not displaying is relevent, i'm just seeing if I can avoid paying it due to any technicalities, but i've a feeling its not gonna go my way lol, never mind, i'll consider it punishment for something i've previously gotten away with
