Not sure which company they’ve appointed to install cameras but ParkingEye allow 15 minutes before the clock starts (even though once started it is 15 minutes into your parking period. The thing which pisses me off most about these ANPR camera users, police excepted for legitimate law enforcement uses, is how did DVLA, a government agent, responsible for vehicle and driver licensing is being used to provide the evidence against the very people whose taxes pay for the service. Who decides when and how their stored data is shared to a private third party in order to make money? I’d imagine the private car parking companies would need to pay DVLA (the government) for the names and addresses of those not parking within the rules but how, under GDPR? If someone hit my car and drove off and I got the reg number, I wouldn’t then be able to contact DVLA to fill in the gaps like where the car is registered without going through the police, even if I offered to pay because such info is protected by GDPR.

I move from my back row of ESL seat to close to an exit during injury time. I'm out as soon as th final whistle blows and into my car & away. Costs less than the official car parks and I'm usually home, 65 miles away, inside 6pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found on gov.uk Landowners, private car parking companies and trespass management companies Private car parking facilities provide a vital service in towns and cities throughout the UK. Many shops, hotels, pubs and doctors’ surgeries are affected when motorists park their vehicles in breach of a car park’s terms and conditions. Properly controlled data release from the DVLA vehicle register helps these organisations operate effectively for the benefit of all motorists. A motorist who parks a vehicle on private land does so subject to the terms and conditions set out on the car park’s signage. It is considered reasonable for businesses and landowners to seek redress if vehicles have been parked in breach of the terms and conditions. This could include overstaying the permitted time period, failing to pay the relevant charge or trespassing on land where parking is not allowed. Vehicles may also have been inconsiderately parked, for example, in a space reserved for disabled motorists when not entitled to or obstructing access for emergency vehicles. DVLA provides data to allow landowners or their agents to pursue their legal rights and resolve disputes. To make sure motorists are treated fairly when any parking or trespass charge is pursued, DVLA will only provide vehicle keeper details where the company is a member of an Accredited Trade Association (ATA). ATAs enforce a code of practice which covers many aspects of a car parking operator’s business. While complying with the code of practice is an important consideration for DVLA when releasing vehicle keeper data, not all requirements of the code affect reasonable cause. DVLA will not disclose data to parking or trespass companies who are not members of an ATA. We expect the ATAs to monitor adherence to the code of practice and investigate and address non-compliance when it arises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
