PCN - Loading Bay - Code 25 - Newham
DIR By: Maaeez123
Date: August 23, 2023, 12:21 am
---------------------------------------------------------
Date of notice : 21/08/23
PCN : PN36504729
Vehicle registration: OU56FEK
Hi,
I got a PCN on the beginning of Gower Rd, Forest Gate, Newham. I
parked there in the night. The beginning of Gower Rd has parking
restrictions between 8 and 11 am and you can only park there if
you're loading. However along with the loading information on
the signpost you will also find the normal parking restriction
hours and this says 11am. It's a bit unclear to me. According to
the bottom I can park there before 11am but the loading
information says I can't. It's all confusing to me.
I'll post the images so others can see. Please help.
This is the link for the images:

Blue badge exemption in a loading bay should apply.
Wait for other views.

I don't think the vehicle had a blue badge displayed. The
registration mark is coming up as a skoda which is not pictured
in the links. I assume they were taken after the ticket was
received and the skoda moved elsewhere.

In that case the OP has no exemption, the sign is perfectly
clear and understandable, so payment at the discount is
recommended.

If you weren't loading at the time then you should pay at the
discounted rate.

Why was the car parked there?
If there's no real excuse, make a plea for discretion and in the
meantime I'll get hold of the traffic order.

It was parked overnight. I did plan to move the car at 8 because
normally that's when parking time starts.
I'm sorry what do you mean by discretion?

The council has a power to cancel a penalty even if a
contravention has clearly happened, and they are under a legal
duty to consider doing so if you ask them. The point is
explained in detail in Susan Cook v Trafford Borough Council (TR
05993K, 25 January 2013)

A good example is here

/>but obviously you can't make stuff up, you can only advance
mitigating factors that actually apply to your case. Factors
such as it being a first contravention, being unfamiliar with
the area etc are all worth mentioning if they are applicable to
you.
