Mr Mustard's friend had a blue badge passenger in the car. He knew that was OK in Barnet and Enfield* to park in a residents bay and therefore assumed it would be ok in Tower Hamlets. It wasn't. Mr Mustard thought about the matter and sent in the following informal challenge. (* do put Mr Mustard right if he is wrong about this).
Tower Hamlets were quite quick and replied after 2 weeks.
The content of the letter, which was sent attached to an email, was somewhat contradicted by the covering email.
If there was a scoring system for this PCN Tower Hamlets would get a 9 out of 10, so well done them for cancelling for a first error which should not get repeated. This is how it should be.
This does highlight though the problem for a blue badge driver who really needs to research where he/she can stop for free before he/she makes a journey across London. It wouldn't need much, a blue badge logo on all bays where blue badges could be used would be a simple addition and bring clarity to all. Tower Hamlets sadly didn't answer the simple question posed by Mr Mustard, once they have cancelled a PCN they don't want to spend more time on it.
The end.
