This blog also concerns Miss M. This parking contravention happened on the same day as the driving one. It seems that the offending motorist has either learnt how to park and drive or has moved on to another numberplate.
Here is the car parked up. Clearly not a Mini but the traffic warden won't know what it is meant to be.
However, as soon as Brent Council had the DVLA data they knew the vehicle they had ticketed was not a Mini and should not have sent a Notice to Owner.
It looks like Brent's traffic wardens move about on e-bikes. They will drop out of the sky even faster when you stop, just for a minute, on double yellows. Don't do it.
I note that the photos taken by the traffic warden do not include one of the VIN which would have enabled Brent to check the true identity of the vehicle and report the perpetrator to the police. An opportunity missed.
Mr Mustard made the formal representations.
Mr Mustard asked some process questions and had less than satisfactory answers.
Quite simply, Brent Council's checks are inadequate to be sure that they have the correct vehicle. If you can't tell a Mini from a Ford estate you aren't look properly.
The end.
