EDIT: Just speeding ticket now, BS 36mph how to appeal?

[Clutchy]

Started my new job in London, on day 1 I get done for going 32!? according to the gps in a 30. My fault I suppose.



I was told (clearly in error ) that solo motorbikes park free in london in motorcycle spaces.

Stupidly I didn't look at any signs (right in front of me) and left the bike, came back with a westminster parking ticket.

I was in the wrong, however is there anyway I can wriggle out of this? Even if it is a long shot? I'm going to appeal it regardless, so they have to work for their money.


Pics attached. Looks like parking is free from 18:30, I got done at 18:18. MEEEEEEEH


Really need to switch on

If you were doing 32, can they give you a ticket? Thought 34 was the lowest (10% margin of error?). Parking ticket hmm... check online for illegal signage, markings etc. then next time park on the pavement and cover up your plate

Hmmm on that note, if I park in a motorbike bay and take my number plate off and take it with me, what will happen

They'll either use your tax disc or your VIN number and pass onto authorities saying vehicle isn't displaying a plate (even with or without a tax disc)

Westminster Parking has always been a sod since they introduced the charges and began phasing out and privatising the off road car parks

Wait for a ticket (if any), as that seems pretty ridiculous. If every rider/driver was worried about getting caught at 1 mph over the speed limit, we'd all be driving at 10 mph or constantly looking at our speedos.

Been flashed loads of times, never got anything, don't worry about it.

What kind of speed camera was it?
If Gatso was it film (bigger) or digital (smaller)?

Westminster are known to waive first-time parking offences if you have a reasonable explanation (which doesn't have to be a legal explanation), it's no guarantee that they will, but there's a fair chance.

If you are paying £1.10 for the day, you're paying 10p too much, it's a pound a day.

Well I've sent my appeal, I will get a reply within ten days so I will still get the discounted rate if the appeal is denied.

That sucks. Good luck with the appeal.

I still haven't heard anything from mobile speed camera I passed 3 weeks ago. My speedo was broken at the time and I saw it as I was coming around a sweeping corner.. that made me sweat a bit. .
