pistonbroke Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 Thought these tickets were date and time stamped so would producing said ticket not prove beyond reasonable doubt that you had bought a valid ticket at the time the warden knicked you for the offence The fact that the glue was faulty isnt your fault , surely a production error . happens with all manufacturing processes . Seems wrong to me , stupid court if they convicted for this, are you in wales or something , sort of thing they would do because of the low crime rate giving them sod all else to do Quote

sparky21 Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 I have just got the council to revoke a fine SWMBO got for a ticket without a sticky back, that blew across the dash in high winds. They told me it was a good will decision and in future I should use the sticky backing ( that wasn't infect there) to make sure it doesn't happen again otherwise the fine would stay in place. So I sent them this ...... Thank you for revoking my parking fine! Can I point out something though please? You have advised me to use the peel off backing on the ticket in future to avoid the ticket blowing about in the wind? This isn't possible as the ticket the machine is not in fact giving out tickets with a peel-able sticky backing! So as you say this will be a one off decision and future tickets will be enforced if I do do not use the peel-able sticky backing, could you please answer the following question? How can I stick a non stick sticker to a non sticky surface if the sticky you tell me to use isn't in fact there or in fact sticky, therefore rendering your stick the sticky ticket to a non sticky surface a pointless sticky remark, the only way this sticking point can therefore be rectified is for you to make the non sticky sticky sticky so that I can then stick sticky ticket to to the still non sticky surface. Until this is rectified i will buy a roll of sticky tape to stick the non sticky ticket to the non sticky surface to stop the non sticky ticket blowing around the non sticky dashboard. Just a thought but anyway have a great day? As yet they have not replied ? Quote

But he did display the ticket , but it fell off "in his absence" the reason it fell off was obvious, the sticky stuff was defective, otherwise it would have stayed put . Any idiot can see that Quote
carpetstu Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 The welsh have machines where you have to input your reg number to validate the ticket purchase. You would have thought this was to stop the ticket not displayed issue? Nope.....it is infact designed to stop kind motorists donating un expired tickets to other motorists Quote
Norman Verona Posted April 11, 2011 Posted April 11, 2011 Stu, not just the Welsh, Chesterfield town centre car park has them. (Suppose it's a bit like being Welsh) However, I couldn't put my reg number in because it's pre the current format. So I had to put in AA01 Quote
