       Just seen an invoice from them for stopping for ONE minute at
       Frimley Park Hospital Surrey on the road out.  there is a
       possibility that yellow lines are in existence... but do they
       carry any weight legally on  Hospital property?  which i assume
       it as otherwise it would be local council authority.I sm going
       there on Friday  to check it out  re signs etc   The driver is a
       bit agrieved as the time shows stopped for   0hrs 1min 0 secs!!
       and stopped as a warning sign popped up re seatbelt. checked
       everything ok  and carried on.Are UKPC litigous? and for 1min is
       it worth going to popla?

       PALS if applicable.
       Hospitals are private land, not council land.

       Ok Link read
       Haver visited PALS this am and they said i was to appeal and
       once givern a PCN number? ( surely this is the  parking charge
       reference number?) to contact the Frimley Hospital appeals site
       I looked at the UKPC site and it would appear that i appeal to
       them first and have a choice of three options  Driver/Registered
       Keeper/and Driver AND registered keeper,  i have not completed
       the form ,but would my first contact be a registered keeper
       I have also drafted a letter to the Frimley appeals asking
       the.as employers of UKPC to waive the charge as it was no longer
       that one minute and the reason for not proceeding was a safety
       concern that was rectified in the time claimed. perhaps using
       'de minimus' as a reason.
       Therefore would my next action be to contact Frimley first and
       see their reply ,or go to UKPC site who no doubt will reject it?
       Just need to get everything in correct order
       Thanks

       The Story so far
       Driver visited Frimley Park Hospital, and on exixting got a
       safety belt warning show on the information screen.
       He stopped the vehicle to investigate and after checking that
       the 'fault' had been cleared  continued on his way out. Drivers
       estimate for this action, no more than one minute.. possibly as
       little as 15sec.
       RK received PCN claiming vehicle was stationary for one minute
       exactly in an area designated no stopping by the Parking Company
       RK was intially advised to check procedure and contacted the
       PALS service at Frimley Park Hosp, who gave the RK an email
       address to instigate the appeal. This was done and although the
       appeal was delivered correctly, it had not been read which
       concerned the RK
       RK then asked PALS for a contact number and they advised contact
       is email only
       RK then rang the hospital direct for the dept involved, which
       they had no knowledge of, and passed me onto the security who
       told the RK to send in an appeal on the UKPC site
       So next stage?  attached are the PCN copy and photos raken od
       the signs. It will be boted that the Highways DYL go into the
       Hospital but at the point where the UKPC sign is sited have been
       over painted red!
       Question....  looking at the UKPC appeal site i have to choose
       between the Driver/RK/RKand driver/
       At this stage would i be in order to put RK ?
       There isnt a convuloted explanation on times/delays etc to put
       forward. Only that the safety beltwarning light came on and as
       such the car was not in a safe condition to proceed. Once
       rectified is was then compliant, and driver continued on their
       journay. They feel aggrieved that they should be penalised for
       checking that their own safety was not compromised in continuing
       without confirming everything was ok, and that the time stopped
       was necessary to check the equipment.
       It may be noted that the time stamps on both pictures appear to
       be the same,and the addtl pictures mentioned on the UKPC website
       number, are 2 in total, one of which is a copy of the one on the
       PCN..the other a close up of number plate
       What now is the best course of action?   Has it got a better
       than even chance at POPLA  or do i pay up now and 'save' 40.00
       should it fail?
       Picvs are ow on an imgbb album....Q how do i get the link on
       here for yout to view?

       There is nothing either on the imgbb site except i now have an
       album but nothing to show how to let it be shown on here  the
       only  address i have is this
  HTML https://bobthesod.imgbb.com/albums
