       PCN - Kingsbury Road - parked without clearly displaying a valid
       pay and display ticket or voucher

       Hi Guys,
       I received a PCN for failing to display a ticket. I just had a
       moment and forgot to pay whilst rushing to an appointment. I
       know its a long shot but are there any technical grounds on
       which I can appeal this PCN.
       I don't have any real mitigation and I have already consigned
       myself to accepting this is an expensive lapse in concentration.

       Appears to be the wrong contravention grounds.
       GSV shows a traffic sign requiring either that a ticket is
       purchased and displayed OR that the motorist pay by phone. A CEO
       would be required to check the car for a P&D ticket and their
       HHC for any payments by phone/text and if neither then issue a
       PCN for failure to pay the parking charge, not
       non-display....how can not displaying be a contravention in
       itself if it is only an option?
       Wait for others.

       Thank you for your reply.
       What contravention ground do you think would have been more
       appropriate?
       I will wait on others to reply.

       Any further input from anyone will be greatly appreciated.
       I think I have by end of today to pay the discounted charge.
       Thanks in advance.

       Send in reps today. Unsuccessful reps submitted within the
       14-day discount would attract a further 14 days to pay the
       discount once you receive their response.
       It is a no-risk move to submit reps today online as instructed
       in the PCN.
       Dear Sir,
       ***all the PCN and VRM preamble...
       I make representations on the following grounds:
       The contravention did not occur.
       As the authority will see from their evidence (the CEO's photos)
       the restriction in effect is given in the traffic sign which
       states:
       Pay by phone
       or Text
       or Pay at the machine and display ticket.
       Clearly, displaying a ticket is an optional matter for a
       motorist and therefore the contravention grounds of 'Parked
       without displaying a ..ticket or voucher' cannot be correct or
       even permissible contravention grounds because, among other
       matters, they deny the owner the defence of having purchased
       parking rights By Phone or Text.
       Contravention grounds must be correct and comprehensive in order
       to alert an owner to their possible applicable defences.
       If the authority believes that use of these grounds where
       payment By Phone or by Text or by purchasing and displaying a
       ticket are valid then they must explain the legal basis for this
       assertion when London Councils' Schedule of Contravention
       Descriptions already lists the correct grounds i.e. Parked
       without payment of the parking charge.
       Wait for others but don't miss the deadline of today.

       Any advice would be appreciated, I need to reply today. I am
       thinking to go ahead and appeal. Should I include examples of
       precedents such as Russo vs Plymouth?

       You are not asked for a reply. You either pay or wait for a NTO
       to be issued to the registered keeper.
       Their argument is tosh, but what did you expect, their
       misunderstanding is systemic.
       Are you the registered keeper with current DVLA details?

       Sorry I meant with regards to the discounted penalty. Yes I am
       the registered keeper.
