Hey guys,
I left my car on a NO STOPPING zone for couple of minutes in front of a 7/11 store last saturday morning to get some drinks on the way to my tennis badge.
Today I received a Penalty notice for "Disobeying No Stopping Sign" and it cost $201!!!
BUT the Rego number printed on the ticket is wrong. The last digit of it is off. The car make, colour and model are correct. (I have seen a similar car to mine with 1 digit diferent on the rego from mine)
Now, do I have a chance on not paying this fine since the Rego No is wrong?
Will it be dissmissed if I don't pay since its not my rego number?
But the thing is, this letter came to my address which they obviously found this out from my car rego but I don't think they took any pictures of my car/rego otherwise the ticket would've been left on my windscreen. Could it be someone wrote down my rego and gave it to council?
Should I ring the SDRO and tell them that there is no car with that Rego on my address?
Is this penalty ticket valid?
What would you do?
Cheers
