Parking fine - is 2 in one day valid?

Sounds good but this is the response to my letter querying this with the processing office.

"As there is a considerable time difference between the two offences, the second Fixed Charge Notice still stands".

Obviously I wouldn't pay the second fine if I didn't have to, but I don't see any way around it, maybe I can appeal later, or I will be summonsed in the meantime!!

The processing office wants its money. They are not in the business of cancelling tickets. They are trying it on. They know in the vast majority of cases that most will fold and pay up after a standard letter form the processing office.

The only way forward would be to pay the earlier one and let the second one go to a summons and the judge will dismiss it. Unless they have evidence that the car was moved between the two times you will win. It is one continuous offence and not 2 offences.

Are you saying if I dont tax my car for lets say a month I can only recieve one fine as it's only one offence?

It is a new offence each day. Same with parking.
