Submitting Reps on grounds of TWOC

[Zinnia]

Hi Guys

 

I need to submit reps for a parking ticket I received. I was out for the day and while I was out one of my family members found my spare car keys and drove to the shops. When I returned in the evening I found my car parked as I'd left it in the driveway with a PCN attached to the window. I've uploaded the ticket and would appreciate your guidance on submitting my initial reps.

 

Are there any errors in the PCN?

Hello and welcome to CAG.

 

The first jpeg is too small for me to read, I'm afraid. Would you be able to resave it as a pdf file please?

 

My best, HB

Thanks! I'll try it again.

I uploaded the PCN to tinypic and then pasted the code into my post but then I saw the following message:

 

"To be able to post links or images your post count must be 10 or greater. You currently have 2 posts.

 

Please remove links from your message, then you will be able to submit your post."

 

I would appreciate someone's help in how I sort out these issues. I tried to delete the PCN that I first posted but couldn't find how to do that.

Twocking is potentially a criminal offence. The council will be looking at whether you allowed your car to be used - in which case they will not cancel the PCN on those grounds, or whether it really was (in their judgement) taken without your consent. If you are going to argue the latter, they will probably want some evidence that you reported it to the police. If you didn't, they would be weighing up whether a family member borrowing your car really does constitute taking without consent, or whether they feel that you allowed it to be done by leaving your keys for someone to pick up and use - and if you didn't report it, whether you yourself considered a crime had been committed. In short, without a crime number, they are unlikely to accept that you aren't responsible for the car and hence the PCN.

 

As for errors on the PCN, I can't say. To get larger images, you can go to a site like Photobucket, and upload it there (hiding the PCN number and reg number first). Then it will be on a page on the net, which you can give us a link to.

Thank you Jamberson. I fully expect the council to reject my reps but I will wait for their response and take it from there.
