as you guys might know im a cabbie and i had a job to pick up a blind disabled man from a shop and take him home,anyhow im in the shop and hes paying 4 something at the counter and i see two female ncp wardens eyeing up the car,so i dash out and say"whats the problem ladies"? "move it" she says "its on a loading bay" she says that the nearest place to park ok is a long walk up the road,i then explain that the guy is what he is and that he needs a helping hand asnd wont be able to walk that far and hes ready to go and ill be 30 seconds and we"ll be gone, well knock me down when we come out the nasty ** has put a fine on the car(only £70),i find that soo distasteful and now its got to the point where i either pay up or go to court,tell me guys what would you do in my place?

Terry. Pretty heartless action, in that case. I would ensure that the 'higher-ups' are aware of the mitigating circumstances. After all, the law is for the guidance of wise men and the obedience of fools! Good luck.

Report sibaroni • January 16, 2010 12:16 AM GMT
Write to Council telling them you will appeal and why, and if any enforcement action is taken in the meantime, you will complain to the ombudsman. This works because firstly, Councils hate ombudsman reports; they cost the council £3,000 even when the council are exonerated. Secondly, they farm out the collection to private firms who they can't control, so won't be able to give the necessary assurance.

They will cave, seen it work a few times.

1 -ask the LA Highways Dept to define "loading"
2 - ask LA Licensing for guidance on picking up said person and your duty of care obligations

By the time you have done this it is likely the fine will be revoked, if not appeal with the relevant definitions.

As a wheelchair user, I used to get the same taxi driver all the time, and he would always park with at least 2 wheels on the pavement or even all 4 wheels on a really wide pavement as it made getting in and out of the car so much easier.

We were often threatened with tickets, but when the wardens realised the circumstances they would usually let us off. We got ticketed twice by jobsworths both of which were cancelled on appeal (a letter along with a statement from my doctor or district nurse listing my disabilities. )

So ,if you have your passengers details, and they are willing to help, I would definitely appeal. ;)

age21 may be incorrect.

I confess I'm no expert on the civil parking enforcement system, but I believe penalties only apply for non-payment.

This would be an appeal (ultimately) to the Traffic Penalty Tribunal arguing that mitigating factors apply and that the council should apply its discretionary powers and waive the penalty.

Go here, it may help
