traffic warden... parking ticket

[red6n2]

anyone know any good and legit reasons for getting out of paying them... i was 3 mins late and the guy was just being a Charlie Uniform November Tango

i thinking of just saying i had a flat tyre and my car with all the snow and ice was inopperable !... surely they cant dispute that !

If you were only three minutes late I would find out how long they are meant to wait because I thought they had to wait around five minutes before issueing a ticket. If you got a ticket only three minutes after ure ticket ran out it means the warden was waiting around by ure car, this is something they are not meant to do. I watched a programme on traffic wardens last week and they were doing this although they said it was illegal so to speak..

I got busted with a ticket last year. I twice put my money in the machine to buy a ticket but the machine spat it back out, I did'nt buy a ticket becuase I could`nt. I told them this in the letter I sent, they said we have`nt had any other complaints so I had to pay it, complete to55ers and they wonder why they get things thrown at them

ahh i really hate when they get picky.
I had my car parked in the wrong place once and the guy was like sorry ticket has gone trough the system now. Then after couple of minutes of arguing , he goes to me ok go and get me a 10 pounds tmobile topup and ill cancel the ticket. Then im like wait let me see your machine. i looked at it and it wasnt even on!

i jus drove off and thank god nothing came in the post

Lol, I'm going to look into how long they have to wait... I mean it's only £25 but it's unecessary. If I had seen the person I'd have kicked off and refused it and drove off without it !. I hope whoever it was has a s**t Christmas lol. I'm gonna pay it then dispute it although I was generally late... I may stick with the flat tyre story lol ?. There's a garage nearbye I know that I'm sure will cover me. Cheers for your help

If they put a ticket on a waiting ambulance, what chance do you think you will have ...

[spudisdabest]

you know if you drive off without him physically putting it on your car, the ticket is void!

[red6n2]

lol ill remember that in the future...

No longer true, they changed that. You even get tickets in the post if your car has been spotted by CCTV.
