Hounslow PCN - Code 622
DIR By: kno

I parked my car with 2 wheels on the footpath and 2 wheels on
the road. Yes, I do not have a good reason on why I did that.
PCN and Council Images are here -

PCN - NJ43657236
VRM - CX62 TXM
Date of Contravention - 14/02/2026

/>This is old now, but both sides of the road is now DYL.
Type - PCN was affixed on the windscreen
Do you think this would be possible to win?

Frankly, I cannot see any possibility of a win on what has been
alleged, namely parking off-carriageway. This has been an
offence in London since the mid-70s and requires no signs or
lines. In your case, the CEO had a choice on what to put on the
PCN, (parking on DYLs, or parking off-carriageway). However,
there are two exemptions to the yellow lines, but none for
parking off-carriageway, hence his choice.
Others may differ, so wait a bit to see if anybody else says
anything, but don't miss the discount deadline.

Thanks
And, am I correct in saying observation time is not a factor
anymore?

Observation time is not legally mandated, but most CEOs usually
wait for a bit for alleged contraventions where there is an
exemption that may not be apparent on first noticing the
vehicle. There are two exemptions to yellow lines, single or
double. However, there are no exemptions for the
off-carriageway contravention.

There are exemptions but very strict - main one is loading but
must be attended and no alternative. Waiting for a gate to open.
