ROADRANGER:
Good evening folks.
I recently parked overnight at rivington services on the M61.
I didn’t pay.
It’s my own motor, and it’s a ltd company.
Anyone know if they still need the drivers name to be successful.
I know things changed after a high court ruling.
But, if they need the drivers name and I dont supply it, ard they buggerood?
In short no, they are not. This is because parking operators in England and Wales are allowed to hold the vehicle’s owner liable for unpaid charges
if they don’t know who the driver was and the owner refuses, or is unable, to name the driver. It’s called keeper liability. This makes
the registered keeper of a vehicle liable for any unpaid parking charges on that vehicle if the amount can’t be recovered from the driver.
