Mf, i guess the parking tickets are unenforceable, if it had to go to court, i guess the constant bombardment of letters for years, doesnt worry some. Also a lot of these vehicles will be hidden behind some company, or other method of concealing ownership.
Absolutely. Tickets that get chased periodically for 8-12 months then they’ll just give up. I hit a ticket because I forgot to display my badge but between that ‘offence’ and the first letter being sent we moved and the letter forwarding ran out. Then we got a huge bunch of old letters after our old landlord gave them to us one day. We had letters dated over 8 months then nothing.
If you know that finding the driver is going to be a proper pain, through business registration, then there’s absolutely no deterrent.
I'm Autistic, if I say something you find offensive, please let me know, I can guarantee it was unintentional.
I'll try to give my honest opinion but am always open to learning.Mark
This basically what you put on the appeal form.
“Obviously you just appeal online like the PCN tells you on the back.
Do not say you forgot. Say you have cognitive difficulties and can’t recall the incident or why the operative would not have seen your Blue Badge, which you do display normally. And here’s a picture of it (photo redacted for personal data privacy) and you hope they will make a ‘reasonable adjustment’ for your case and cancel the PCN.”
I mentioned in a previous post that I’m often judged exiting my vehicle and even though I display a blue badge which I’m entitled to I still receive abuse even from other blue badge holders who don’t realise I’m a double leg amputee,type 1 diabetic and on dialysis due to kidney failure but i still push myself to work and as i wear a suit and remain mobile it seems I’m punished for doing so but I just can’t be bothered with the ignorance and lack of understanding from people that don’t know any better.
Shsme on them and I hope they could experience the many dark and painful moments I and many others experience before being judged!!

Well I for one salute you on your attitude. Many who are faced with everything that you are wouldn’t even attempt to work and would expect the state to support them. The fact that you don’t do that and you push yourself to work is highly commendable.
