       Camden pay-by-phone overstay - PCN issued as code 11 (parked
       without payment of the parking charge)

       Hi all,
       I received a windscreen PCN whilst parked in a pay by phone bay,
       outside a hospital.
       The parking was for 4 hours (roughly 0830 to 1230, which is the
       max allowed stay, with no return in 4 hours), and the fairly
       routine visit was not expected to be any longer than this.
       Instead, to cut a long story short, my wife ended up delivering
       our baby unexpectedly that afternoon!
       I received a PCN timed 1529, code 11, which is parking without
       payment. It's not the code for overstaying a session, as far as
       I am aware.
       I am going to appeal citing mitigating circumstances - we were
       definitely not expecting to be suddenly admitted and baby
       delivered. But I was wondering whether it's also worth
       mentioning that the wrong code has been used?
       The car overstayed the session; the contravention was not that
       the parking was never paid for to begin with.
       Thanks

       Congrats on baby.
       I don't think there's anything in the no pay vs overstay codes -
       they are both low level and at some point a contravention of not
       paying is going to supersede an overstay.
       But you can go further than mitigation as the baby is clearly
       circumstance beyond your control, which can be an accepted
       ground at the tribunal.
       I would make light and polite of this and Camden would have to
       be very hard hearted not to cancel.
       Post the PCN anyway.

       Just to update that was indeed cancelled. Thanks.
