hi
my college has recently closed the car park and this morning i cudn't find a space. i was apparently parked on double yellow lines which were covered up by mud (i have a pic to prove that they were covered) and i got a ticket.
upon opening the notace i spotted a few problems
1, they had wrote my registration down rong
2, The street name was rong too
all i want to know reeli is do i have a case against the council which would mean i dnt have to pay it or shud i just pay up??
what wud u do??
Cheers

If they are taking you to court for a £30 fine they WILL take you for a £60 one, by simple deduction.
Was the whole road covered in mud? There wasnt any double yellows further up or anything? Unless thats really the case doubt you would get far in an appeal

go to court dont pay the fine dont tell them they have it wrong (keep shtum)when your in court if the road is definately wrong the court should throw it out wrong evidence they tend to be more cautious and not prosicute set of f-cking wan-ers let us know the outcome good luck
