Its always worthwhile, and useful, to take into account the parking rules and laws in the UK when you are driving. The benefits are that you're less likely be caught by a parking offence, or otherwise.
Of all the driving related offences you will come across, the two most frequently broke are parking and speeding fines. The former is usually when breaking posted parking rules, and the latter for, as you guessed, for speeding.
When planning your route - always take care to consider parking. Major cities throughout the UK make significant financial gains through parking tickets - so don't let yourself be a contributor.
The UK is a heavily regulated country (as we know!) and driving enforcement is a key area, which covers the good old parking ticket. Second only to the parking ticket, or maybe even in first place, is the speeding ticket. The simple rule is to observe and follow the posted rules for parking, and for speeding too. Keep an eye out, and be vigilant.
Did you know that the majority of police traffic fines are actually managed by local authorities, and not the police? Its true, whereas speeding fines are managed by the police directly, other aspects are managed by local government.
The police have authority over most parking fines and all speeding fines. You can get caught and have to pay police traffic fines for both in several ways. First of all, for speeding, you can get caught by a policeman and a speed gun. You can also be caught by two policemen. Another way that you can be caught speeding is by a traffic camera. Also, analysation of skid marks from your car can be a way to catch you speeding. Lastly, you can also be caught with a policeman's speedometer itself. These are the ways that you can be caught speeding and be responsible for paying police traffic fines.
The evidence that will tie you to the parking offence is obviously your car. If you contravene a posted parking rule, you may caught simply by the footage of security cameras and receive a notification in the post or otherwise. The other likely occurrence is that you will receive a notification on your vehicle.
The ticket is the only thing that can you what you are accused of, specifically the ticket should have the details of the alleged offence and the costs, otherwise this is grounds for appeal. if, at the end of the day, you are liable to pay, there are a number of different ways to pay. You can send a cheque by post, or pay in person - and on many occasions you can pay parking tickets online.
If you really believe that you are not responsible or liable in anyway for the alleged offence then you obviously need to have evidence of your innocence. Obviously the prosecution will have the evidence they believe to be valid to charge and fine you, and therefore you need to be able to counter this.
