U can try to appeal that. Few summons were issued to my wife when she parked at " no parking " & " reserved lot " but after I wrote the appeal, they alwa...

i park a car at yishun 700+ on saturday nite after 12. so its sunday already.
hence we nv put coupon.

then after we watch finish movie we came back and we saw a $50 ticket there.

offence is 18(1) we had park on the season parking area they said.

but the prob is with all our eyes we can't even tell that the lot is for season parking.

firstly u can't see clearly the big SEASON PARKING ONLY words.
its like scratch off liao.
then we can't see red markings also.
its TOTALLY white markings.

so how the hell do we know its a season parking lot ?

anione know how should i go about fighting it ?
i know can email [email protected]

but do i need to provide any other evidence ?? or watsoever ?

try to get photo evidence? go back there and take photograph of the place.. den send as an attachment..

but there are places that i know.. for e.g bishan

when u enter the carpark.. they coupon or whatever board they call it will state "SEASON PARKING ONLY"

I believe the summon was issued by HDB, not TP. Therefore, if you want to appeal, it should be sent to HDB. Check the ticket....
Nowadays, white lots can also be season parking, if they have the notice board right at the entrance of the carpark....season parking....

tomsss SG

Just pay that $50 and be more alert to look out for signs board saying what kind of lot is it in the future. No point trying to appeal if ya like the only one who cannot tell whether that lot is season parking or not.

bo liao SG

eviljustice SG

ooohh. thx for e tips

nightsky87 SG

agree. it's only 50 dollars, are you sure you want to spend so much time and effort to appeal? to go back there, take photo, send to hdb, etc. just take note of this and don't make the same mistake again.

vincentchean SG

the car park confirm don't have the sign season parking only cause got lots is confirm normal lots.
somemore not onli i tio this kinda shit.

even a lorry beside me who had tear a nite $2 ticket also tio.
its those crap fault who nv put proper markings.

and why should i make the government richer !

sbst275 SG

Better see the road marking

Also there are signboards behind at regular interval to display the lots that are designated for season parking only

nightsky87 SG

when you chose to drive, you already decided to make the government richer, via COE, road tax, ERP, season parking, etc etc etc.

vincentchean SG

u ppl see la.

can see the base painting is red but white overlap it entirely.

so they still call this red lot ah

tomsss SG

then you show those to HDB loh Rolling Eyes

zerocool85 SG

mazda 3? Very Happy

I appeal before for this kind of summon. I just told them that the lighting is very dim at the carpark area. The red colour is faded, therefore cannot see properly whether it is white lot or red lot.

I also quoted that I have no previous offences for the past 1 year and that I buy season parking at my place through GIRO. I also quoted my coupon number which I teared one hour, sincerely because I had thought it was a white lot.

It took me only half an hour to draft up an email which I sent to HDB.

They replied me within 2 working days through email. My $50 was waived. Not that difficult, depends on how you debate it.

vincentchean SG

vincentchean SG

i got the wrong email add.

anione wats the correct email add for hdb parking summons ????

woodlandsHool SG

i think u should fight ur case here i think u had a valid issue ....

we pay lta for road tax , coe and season parking for hdb .. dun tell m they so tight on budget till they cant even paint the words properly ah

secret_boy SG

even if its not a season parking lot , u will still get a summon, because, free parking on sunday and public holidays is from 7am(or 7.30am) to 10.30 pm only

Ritz79 SG

But can save $20. I think summon is $30 if never put coupon for white lots. But make sure the whole carpark is not for season parking only.
