briggers Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 got 3 points possibly as i pulled up outside a bank when the lights were red girlfriend got out waited a few secs to check everything when the police parked behind me and said i have 3 points and 60 fine when i got out i shat myself as you do as everyone was watching and i was like what officer I've only been here a min i just let my girlfriend out.anyway they gave em to me and said we have reason 2 believe you were parked there. i took em 2 coart as i thought it was a bit harsh. this all happened in feb and now i get a letter saying im due in coart. i thought damn as i forgott about it and thought they had 2 but,in their statement they have said they saw me stationary for about 30 seconds i give em that but as it was just infront of a bus stop i was checking out my rear view mirror and i saw em coming and didnt think anything of it.i was on the zigzag lines in front of the lights and they said i was parked there and gave me the points.what can i do anyone know if i have a leg to stand on as i have been told by someone if found guilty i can have more points put on than just 3 and also pay the coart costs which i dont wanna do. aghhhhhhhhhhhhh help.

tucka Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 i would of just took the points in the first place, you cant argue as you was parked there on lines which you shouldnt be on! havnt really got a leg to stand on! just plead guilty and get it over and done with, if you try and fight it and still found guilty they may be harsher plus your gonna have to pay court fees now to! thats my personal opinion!

SpeedFreak Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Its is completeley illegal to park on those lines, whether its to drop someone off or park. The only people allowed to park there and get away with it are disabled badge holders.Just accept the charge, they could have you done for wasting police and court time at the same time and then you would have to pay court fee's Quote Link to post Share on other sites
