If there are no signs or lines they shouldn't of put the ticket on as the last warden I talked to about a car parking over my drop kerb told me they can only ticket where there are lines and signs

Default This cannot be Lawful..

No Signs, no lines, no street lighting, no obstruction of any kind. This is not lawful and will not stand up to a full court hearing.
Tell them to **** Off....

Default And Furthermore..

The part of this track is not covered by Tarmac and is very likely unadopted by the Council, my partner works in legal and is of the opinion that this is not lawful, any signage on a restricted zone must be clearly posted. there's nothing here and no case to answer.
I'd suggest you give this to the national papers...

Any 'Parking Charge Notice' issued by a car park controlling company are worthless and should be ignored. They can't take you to court, can't threaten you and can't touch your credit file. They are just cowboy companies trying to scam the public. I've ignored loads and have never seen anything more than the odd 1 or 2 threat letters, all of which are just for scaring!

The only tickets you need to pay are council and police.

You are on the correct side of the road, unless the picture was taken in France. If it was dark i.e. night time and there was a speed limit of 40mph on that section of road, you are required to have side lights on. If 30mph then you do not need lights on.That covers a few more options for you. Tell em to go jump in the ditch.
