Re: Tower hamlets. Parked outside dropped kerb driveway of own

My view is that the OP should take them all the way to London
Tribunals if necessary, but we don't yet know the ownership of
the car in relation to the next stage, the Notice to Owner,
which is sent by post.
At the moment, the OP has submitted an informal challenge, and
received the usual Fob-Off letter sent out for almost all
informal challenges. Most people never take matters further and
pay the discount, thus reinforcing councils in their essentially
unlawful practice, like here, where the car was lawfully parked
on the dropped kerb.
So if the owner can tell us whether he owns the car, and the V5C
is up-to-date matters can proceed.

OK, so if you are prepared to stand your ground and take them
all the way to London Tribunals you now need to wait for the
Notice to Owner. This will be sent to the address on your V5C,
so check it is totally correct as you don't want to miss it.

I don’t have my exact Inital representation however I wrote that
I parked in front of my own drive. Provided them evidence of my
v5 and my parking permit as evidence of living there.

This is pretty much it I think - wait and see if anyone has
other things.
One point I think is that this is not a car garage but a storage
unit?
----------------------------
I am repeating that the contravention did not occur as I was
parked adjacent to the dropped footway outside my own garage.
You acknowledge this in your rejection of my informal challenge,
but say it is still a contravention.
I must therefore point out that the Traffic Management Act 2004
provides for exceptions in section 86 - Prohibition of parking
at dropped footways etc. and the relevant exception reads:
The second exception is where the vehicle is parked outside
residential premises by or with the consent (but not consent
given for reward) of the occupier of the premises.
I trust this is clear and look forward to the speedy
cancellation of the PCN.

Thank you, it’s too small for modern day cars that’s all I can
say. Used to fit my older cars back in the days

Up here they don't enforce private access dropped kerbs unless
the property owner requests it. And if a dropped kerb is
enforced, it's enforced for everyone, no exceptions for the home
owner or guests of the home owner.
