If your Scottish, dont pay! English Civil Penalties are unenforcible in Scotland.
That also goes for Scottish Civil Penalties down south.

I don’t think that would make any difference when it comes to being fined tbh.

Over the 20 odd years I have been driving trucks up and down the M6 I have stopped at Lymm many many times, I have spent money in the cafe and lots of money in the CB shop… ![:confused: :confused:](https://emoji.discourse-cdn.com/twitter/confused.png?v=12)

I know Lymm is in England! At least it was 3 weeks ago! (Only a joke! No offence!) The point I made was if they send out a civil penalty notice, this is un-enforceable in Scotland, Ireland or abroad. It is only valid in England & Wales. ie:- We are ‘Foreign’ to English Civil Law, which is why Gretna Green was popular for marriage, our law allows marriage at 16 unlike E &W which is now 18 and used to be 21. This does not apply to penalties issued by police or traffic wardens.

Minimum age for marriage in England is 16, with parental consent or permission of a court, see

I stand corrected.

i think it’s absolutely pathetic and petty minded but quite possibly nothin at all to do with moto.
there is a new system in place and it is operated by a seperate parking company to what we have all got used to, parking eye, car park management now manage the parking at lymm it is also parking eye which employs the wheel clampers, parking control management (uk) ltd.
the system has been completely changed from it’s previous operation, you now get your number plate read by a number plate recognition camera on entry to the site and as leave your number plate is once again read on exit.
number plate recognition relies upon information from DVLA at swansea.
i would probably say that no human is involved in the time frame for payment, i would suggest that it’s all computer operated so the system records an overstay without payment for parking and automatically isues the appropriate paperwork for a fine to be sent to the vehicle owner, the vehicle owner is responsible for the parking fine and not the driver of the vehicle.
the registered keeper should pay the fine then seek reimbursement from the driver.
if you are a driver and employed by the owner of the vehicle you may want to point out that they are in contravention of the data protection act, they cannot release your details without your permission unless it is believed you have commited a criminal offence and it is the authorities that is seeking the information.
at the end of the day though - 2 minutes overstay could be argued that an attempt to leave on time had been delayed by vehicles manouvering on site or a better delay would be that coach passengers had delayed your departure by walking around the busy first lane as the coach they were in was illegally parked in the truck ranks.
anyone stopping at lymm now has to pay inside the shop or cafe and you now have to enter your truck registration number into a computer screen so get it right or you will get a fine for that too as your number will not be correctly entered for recognition against the vehicle registrations recorded by the ANPR camera’s.
this does however pose another problem - foreign vehicles are not recorded at DVLA and so they can park overnight without paying and without risk of pursuance for the fee’s and fines involved - welcome to england where we hassle our own people to death but leave the foreigners alone to wander where they like free of charge and without fear of prosecution.
Cover up the number plate and drive out, problem solved.

you would have to cover up the plate to drive in too or it will record that you’ve been in there for days on end.
