This came into force in March 2008 and is designed to " make enforcement of parking restrictions easier to enforce." It states that:
Councils across England gain the right to use CCTV to detect offences on roads where parking is banned. Councils in London already have this power (this should be revoked as well).
It places the burden of proof too much on the individual- to the point where an individual is presumed guilty unless proven innocent. If a ticket is served in a the traditional manner, then an individual has the oppotinity to collect evidence at the time the alleged offence occurs, that may be used to successful appeal the Penalty Charge. The regulations all the authority up to 14 days to deliver to the individual the penalty, by which time an inividiual has little or no chance of having or obtaining any such evidence. These regulations are grossly unfair and unconsitutional.
