Parking tickets are becoming more and more regular occurrences these days. At a time when people are counting the pennies in their pockets and hoping their salaries will stretch to pay day, a parking ticket is an unnecessary and very expensive mistake you could do without.

There are more parking tickets written for incorrect London parking than in any other city in the country. The criteria for parking in London has become stricter and there are more traffic wardens on control as councils in the country’s capital city are tightening their belts and encouraging people to use public transport in favour of cars.

If you have received a parking ticket for parking in London where you either shouldn’t have parked or have parked for too long, you are stuck with it. Any parking ticket, not least a London parking ticket, cannot normally be revoked once it has been written and issued by a traffic warden.

Standing your ground and arguing with a traffic warden is not the best option. Even if you feel that your London parking ticket has been issued unfairly, the traffic warden can legally do nothing about it. Should the traffic warden who issued you with your parking ticket still be in the area, one of the best ideas is to ask them why they have issued you with a ticket so you could try stating your case to the council afterwards. Some people in some circumstances may be lucky but the majority of people who try to contest a parking ticket will not be successful.

A ticket can only really be cancelled if it was issued to your vehicle by mistake and this is not a very common occurrence.
