| R Class is almost 2 metres wide, so won't fit into ANY 1.8 metre wide bay.... If this is the first ticket you've received, then you've not had a jobsworth warden before. It IS wider than the bay size provided, but you may have a chance by appealing the ticket on the grounds that you've not been ticketed before as the warden obviously made an exception for you. However, should another wide vehicle park opposite (and on your photo you haven't folded the wing mirrors either) then one or other of you could get scraped or block emergency vehicles. Wait for Mr Jennings to hove into view, he's a whiz on this sort of thing. I don't normally support Councils when they use the Rules and regs to their advantage, but we'd be screaming blue murder if they spent thousands marking wider bays. Bit like seats on buses and tubes... they USED to fit me, but now it's a squeeze, and I don't think they've changed, just me!! |
