This can happen, for example, when people forget to display Pay & Display tickets or when Pay & Display tickets fall off windscreens. It is unfortunate if this happened with you, but a Pay & Display ticket is only valid if it is displayed so that a CEO can see all its details. I do fear you may be correct Steph Croydon council needs all the dough it can get. Many mouths to feed if you get my drift. Luckily I just fed a family for a week so I've done my bit.

If they really wanted to make money they could just come to my road daily and they'd make a fortune. Whilst it seems harsh, it is the drivers responsibility to pay and to make sure they display items correctly.

I have had a few encounters with traffic wardens. These nearly boiled into physical violence,...which is not the answer. As I was moving house some 5 years ago, I hired a van to move my stuff and parked outside my house. Admittedly on a dropped kerb, ...but it was my kerb. The tw at of a warden had previously ticketed my aunt who had a blue badge for doing the same. He attempted to ticket my van, whilst hiding behind a neighbours wall. He was spotted. I discussed the parked van issue with warden (face to face), and he fcked off. Was pleased to hear that 2 years later he had the 5hlt beaten out of him by another motorist. (I think I mentioned earlier, that violence is not the answer. ) It's a dirty job, but someone had to do it. Edited by Forest Hillbilly (04 Jul 2018 2.13pm) "The facts have changed", Rishi Sunak

Edited by Forest Hillbilly (04 Jul 2018 2.13pm) Just to point out Ali, it is not your dropped kerb and CEOs can issue PCNs if you park on it. End of the day it stops others from blocking your vehicle in or out of your driveway. At the end of the day, they are doing their jobs. If people parked legally then they wouldn't have to worry about PCNs.
