       London Borough of Newham Code 165

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Received a PCN being parked in a disabled bay with my disabled
       badge clearly visible. Didn't see the sign saying 'resident
       permit holders only' though with
       Contravention code 165 listed as the offence on the PCN.
       According to Mr Google code 165 relates to parking infront of a
       dropped footway which clearly this wasn't.
       Any advice would be appreciated.
       Thanks

       Hello
       I received a PCN today for parking in a disabled parking bay
       with my disabled badge but failed to see that it was the
       residents disabled bay.
       The code contravention stated on the PCN is code 165 which
       according to Mr Google is
       'Parking in front of a dropped footway'
       Is there anything here that can be appealed.
       Thanks
       Hashim

       The contravention on the PCN is clear enough. Where did you get
       that description of the code number ?
       Please post a GSV view to the exact location of parking.

       It's a code 16 with a suffix 5, which means dedicated disabled
       bay.
       Newham is not a forgiving council but we can look at this if you
       post the PCN. no redactions.

       I have requested the traffic order for the bay, the last time I
       dealt with such a bay in Newham it turned out the traffic order
       didn't exist, or rather it did but it was for a normal bay.
       Also do you have any mitigating circumstances, even if unrelated
       to the contravention itself?

       I wanted to shop at the local store and as a disabled driver
       this was the closest disabled bay that I found not realising
       that it was a residential bay.
       Also is the coding on the PCN correct?
       Thanks

       [member=354]Hashim[/member] the code is legally irrelevant, as I
       said any mitigating circumstances, even if apparently unrelated
       to the contravention and somewhat far-fetched, can significantly
       strengthen your case.

       Dear cp8759
       I parked there as it was the closest to the bakery where i
       needed to pick up some stuff.
