I had to stop down lordship Lane this morning around 9am as I felt very nauseous.

I parked up by Barclays Bank in the parking bay for a few minutes to get some water.

When I returned to my car I saw a parking enforcement office on his motor bike near my car. There was no ticket placed on my car window screen.

Can I still receive a pertly charge notice if no ticket was issued or placed on my car ??


The bay I parked in, which I only noticed after I returned back to my car had a sign near by stating 10-7pm parking

In my unwell state I did not notice this.


Thanks

As the parking ticket normally acts as the notification of a parking fine you are probably OK - moving traffic offences are notified by post, and it's possible that parking offences captured by camera are also so notified - but a guy on a bike doesn't match this.


If you drove off while a warden was attempting to place a notice on your car, that probably too is an offence, but this is not what you have described here.


Hope you are feeling better

Thanks Penguin68.

I did not drive off whilst the warden attempted to put a ticket on my car.

He was sitting on his bike typing something near my car.

I drove off, as did he more or less straight after me.


I am feeling a bit better thank you

I had caught Noro virus from work.


Thanks again

Yes, if you drove off after the offence but before the ticket was placed on your windscreen. What will happen is that a reminder will be posted after the "pay half price" date has passed. You may want to check your reg on the council site (I know some councils do this) to see if your vehicle has a PCN - then pay it before it goes up. If they have photos then they will enforce it. I also noticed that a parking enforment patrol was on LL this morning with its erection poking from the roof - if they caught you on that then they will notify you by post. I hope neither is the case.

I agree, if you were caught on camera then they may issue a ticket - in my experience when a traffic warden tickets you they are standing by your car when they do this (write up the ticket) not sitting on a bike. Checking on the council site wouldn't be any harm (if Southwark does post this).


However (see another thread) -http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,336529,page=96 it appears that Southwark can no longer get vehicle details from the DVLA - so it would be interesting to see how they can pursue motoring offences when they cannot get vehicle ownership details.

Thanks Rianoo.


I don't think Southwark council have the service where you can check if you have received a parking fine.

I guess it's another way for them to make more from parking fines.

I guess I have to sit and wait to see if I receive anything in the post.

Thanks again

I remember a year or two ago a change in the law whereby you could be fined without a ticket being issued

if a warden sees something and notes it down. Maybe I imagined it :)


Assume it comes in the post if I didn't :(

Thanks JohnL


I quest they take photographic evidence to prove where and what time I was parked.

Bloody Norovirus.


I have to be honest I am preparing to receive a fibe via the post


Thanks again

Hi, husband sucesfully challenged a ticket that was never put on his windscreen a few years ago. But i think they may have changed the law since then so the fine can still be issued as JohnL says. Not sure. would still challenge though as it would have been safer to stop than drive feeling ill?

    • It’s the impact the festival has on the community, the people living next door to the park who have to endure the thumping music and worse. Then there’s the park and the state it’s left in and the wildlife, especially nesting birds. All the roads going down Denmark Hill towards the park were closed off and roads off half moon lane and going up towards West Norwood closed off with wardens at each end, who were paid by Lambeth Council to stand there for the 4 days.  The festival made the news channels and interviews suggested most of the people attending weren’t fron the local area but places like Ireland and Scotland.  I live a 20 minute walk from the park and could hear the thumping music all day and night. Also the wind certainly carried the smell of drugs to my garden! For 4 days I couldn’t believe how strong it was. 
    • Emirates Stadium is  >60,00 but they tend to be very quiet 🙂 Jokes aside though, it's a case in point. Highbury was <40,000 and was 300M up the road, so there are definitely Islington residents who used to live half a mile from a fairly big football stadium, and now live right by a massive one. One that holds rock/pop concerts too accomodating 70,000 fans whether they like ot or not.   40% of Islington households are in social housing so regardless of when they moved their current homes, they may have had little say in exactly where they are housed.   
    • St Christopher's only take books in perfect condition. 
    • This is where I sit too. A two day event is bearable. Three tests my tolerance. Finding the right balance on size, noise and impact is where I contribute to the consultation process. BUT, as I wrote elsewhere, every year the GALA organisers ask/ push for more, and deals have already been done with the council before it gets to public consultation stage. It is also worth pointing out that when a licence was first granted, the orgnaisation was different (We Are the Fair), one of the company directors lived literally next to the park (she left when it became GALA) and the current form bears no resemblance to original ethos/ vision sold to the council and licensing committee. This needs to be pointed out and I am fairly confident local councillors would also support a pushback on any further expansion. We have local elections next year, so councillors ears will be open.
