Sunderland case submission may collapse Controlled Parking Zones across the country

A submission made to the National Parking Adjudication Service adjudicator in the case of Herron v Sunderland on 12th September 2007 has the potential t collapse every CPZ in the country.

The crux of the case relied on the validity of the CPZ due to incorrect / missing / unlawful signing within the CPZ.

Remarkably, after over 6 hours worth of submissions by signing expert Richard Bentley the adjudicator decided to adjourn ... for TWO MONTHS!!!

Meanwhile, the DfT has confirmed that they are currently re-drafting the guidance on CPZs as the case has national implications.

Trouble for Camden is that a large percentage of their signs and lines also do not comply with the legal requirements and this could lead in a massive increase in the number of drivers appealing ... and winning. We will be posting the arguments on the Camden section of the www.parkingappeals.co.uk website within the next two weeks.
