Definately O/T :- Parking Ticket

I know this is a million miles away from golf but just received a PCN for £70 for parking outside my own house during a restricted time period.

Im not going to deny the car was there but wondered whether anybody knew of any free advice to fight this.

The yellow line is broken in many places and as far as i can tell dosnt end with a bar at 90degrees instead runs continously around the block and joins up with itself. Does any of this make a difference?

Col,

I read somewhere about a guy taking the cuncil to court over a parking ticket due to the markings being broken and not ended correctly and winning.  He argued that the markings were not defined in the Highway Code (not continous line with 90* ending) and therefore had no meaning.  Think he was in Norfolk. 

Photos are the key. 

Forgot the car was not on the drive. Remembered 15 mins too late and missed the council jobsworth by about 5 mins. No beef im clearly in the wrong just annoyed thats all could have 10 rounds of golf for the price of the ticket

If it was the first time and I could see no stakes indicating an out of bounds then I would have played the found ball.

7 rounds for £70 includes lost balls and refreshment afterwards I only pay £6 twighlight for a very reasonable local course which i can get round in 2 1/2 hours

Thread offcially back ON topic
