My son borrowed his dad’s car, but entered his own registration details in error without realising, until the parking ticket arrived.
He appealed with the explanation and had to send the ‘log book’ paper work for both cars and the parking ticket was cancelled.
Good luck with it.

Yes, I parked at the beach and put my number into the rather antiquated machine. The sun was, unusually, blaring down and l tapped in a wrong digit. I received a fine. I phoned to plead it was just a tiny mistake, but it was definitely me in my car. I still had to pay. I didn't check if anyone else had the number ....... but you could plead that in your case the system should identify that motorbikes aren't driven by disabled people! Or are they?

I've think I've done a stupid thing today.
I had to go to our GP's surgery to see the nurse for blood tests. I parked in a disabled spot and put my badge on the dashboard as usual. I went in and put my reg. no. in the terminal but I'm not sure if I put a letter in wrong. My last car began PK but I've only had this car a couple of months and it's PJ but now I'm not sure which letter I put in. I looked on line and if I put PK and the rest of my number it belongs to a motorbike. I know the cameras will have picked my car reg. up and may get a ticket but will the owner of the bike get one too. I tried to ring Parking Eye who run the car park but I can't get through without a parking ticket number.
I suppose I'll have to see what happens and try and appeal.
Has this happened to any of you? DUH what a wally I am.
