Road traffic

Illegal parking fines

Double parking, blocking an entrance, occupying a pavement and stopping on a crossing are governed by different rules. A general landmark on the notice may not identify the part of the road used.

What to check in your case

Does a parking fine affect licence points? A minor offence does not deduct points. Stopping or parking on a marked crossing is a serious offence and can cost two points when the decision becomes final. Reconstruct the vehicle position and distance from the crossing. Minor parking cases may fall to municipal authorities. Use the authority identified in the notice.
