freelance84 Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 If you are getting into your car and a traffic inspector is coming up behind you asking to see a parking permit, for a road with barely any notices around, what happens if you just drive off before he gets any details?

smerny Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 suppose he could have wrote down your license plate and reported the incident or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freelance84 Posted March 30, 2012 Author Share Posted March 30, 2012 I hate hate traffic wardens.. They speak to you in such a patronising way.. like they get a kick out of people being over polite in the hope that a ticket will be waived... the guy had a 4 day old scruffy stubble, black teeth and clearly over weight! I really felt like giving him of mouth full ending with "Get a real job!".. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maq Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 If they didn't get any details then probably nothing... They could notify the police or local authorities with a description of your car but probably not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy-H Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Depends, if you shift in to reverse before you set off you never have to pay for a pint again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe92 Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 An excerpt from this forum found through this yahoo answers thread: If I return to my car whilst the ticket is being issued but drive off before it can be either handed to me or fixed to the vehicle am I still liable? This depends on who it is issuing the ticket. If it is a council parking attendant then, to be valid, the ticket must be either handed to the driver or fixed to the vehicle. If you subsequently get a Notice to Owner you should write to the issuing council, explaining the situation, and ask for it to be cancelled. If they will not cancel it then appeal. Although the adjudication services do not categorise types of appeal anecdotal evidence suggests that between a third and a half of all appeals are for this reason. However, if you return to find a police officer or traffic warden in the process of issuing a ticket then, if you drive off, the ticket can be sent to you as they enforce under different legislation. So in other words, if it's just a council parking attendant at a car park or likewise, then get in and drive like hell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
