On 22/02/2020 a Penalty Charge Notice was served by Civil Enforcement Officer to my vehicle on the grounds of the following; 'Parked in a residents' or shared parking place or zone without a valid virtual permit or clearly displaying a valid physical permit' On 22/02 a number of parking suspensions were in place and the disabled parking space was suspended. I then parked my car in front of a large working vehicle covering large parking space at 16.00 hrs. I displayed disabled badge, came back in approx 18 minutes to have found that large vehicle was replaced by a smaller car, a sign is visible 'Residents permit holder only' and a ticket on my vehicle. Is there anything I can do, please?

many thanks to you both for replying. I guess you live and learn, I never had such ticket and mis-read that PHV drivers can drop off passenger on a bus stop. Now I realise that I only read part of it and there are certain where you can't so it is my fault and I will have to take responsibility. thank you bankfodder for kind words. This is indeed the case as last week and this I have burnt more fuel and expenses than earn anything really and doesn't look like I will be working for next few weeks but hopefully it will all be over soon. I have settled the ticket via credit card to get me some extra time to pay. Can I be a bit more inconvenience and post one another ticket I had (not a bus stop) and may be I have better chance to get that waived?

Hi, I am in need of some assistance please. I am a full time student and funding my studies with flexible work (Private hire vehicle driver with Uber). On 19/01/2020 at 3 pm I had a job picked up from Hounslow and drop off at Hounslow East Tube Station. The customer had booked this job as she had difficulty walking and particularly requested if I could drop her as close as possible. Unfortunately there isn't a suitable area immediately around Hounslow West Station where i could have dropped her and I literally had stopped on the bus stop as there was no traffic behind me (bus or other traffic). The customer got off and I continued driving, it took rather few seconds and I didn't park or put hazard lights and it was really just few second. Later, I received a ticket in the post, which I challenged on the basis that I am a private hire driver and that customer had difficulty walking and i literally had stopped no more than few second and pretty much continued moving without blocked or restricting any traffic as there was none behind me. I am now in receipt of rejection of representation with the following text; I have an option to pay £55 by the 25 March or Appeal to the Parking Adjudicator.
