    I was clamped in a loading bay i was there for 50 mins unloading a van at the time, id to take something out go up 2 flights of stairs and it was a full van.

    But i have heard all loading bays are 30mins regardless of signs or not that was from a member an garda.

    Sorry to hear it OP, but the guys in Dun laoghaire are bad with the ol tickets very little room for error :D

    As you say it might be a new warden who saw the jeep parked there too long, and seeing the name on the jeep might have assumed that the owner of the restaurant might use the loading bay as his own personal parking space.

    Of course, Im just guessing :p Youll know more when you talk to the council.

    main probelm is the council just dont feel like answering there phone and when i finally got throught the lady said wrong department and then i ask to be given a number to the correct department and she hung up!!!!!!! Rude! i think im going to tell him to wait for the court date!

    i no ur wernt being smart :-) didnt think ya were the persons just really annoyed as he owns the restraunt and its never happened before and on the jeep its says the name of the restraunt and he was in the loading bay designated to there! we think it was some1 new once i have a minute in work im goin to make my way up to the loading bay and take a pic or get him to!

    and cars/vans over 3 tonnes are not allowed park in loading bays the designated for commerical car/jeeps and vans not trucks!

    No, that's fair enough. I can see where your friend is coming from also as he could argue that he was using it for loading / unloading but imo once he was finished loading, his jeep should have been moved to another normal parking spot.

    i was once in court for a parking ticket and a man before me was arguing that he was parked in a loading bay out side his wine shop the ticket man said he was there from 1130 till 330 untill they then decieded to give them the ticket the guy stated that he was in and out on deliverys all day the ticket man said with a tape he mesured the distance from the air gauge to the ground and it hadnt changed! the judge laughed at the ticket man for being so particular and said that he could of parked in the same position more then once the ticket man said it was unlikely a one in a million chance u wud get to the exact same postion to the cm more then once. long story short the judge trew it out of court and he got away scot free. and thats why i think we shudnt of been given a ticket!

    So you were in court before for a parking offence..... Would ye not have learned from your previous mistakes and got on with it.:rolleyes:

    Exactly. Loading bays are specifically for hgv and other trucks to use as they need room for tail lifts etc. I think jeep drivers should park elsewhere.
    eh ehere did you hear this then??? completly wrong, loading bays are for commercial vehicles, vans, car vans, jeeps ect not trucks!! did you just make that up:confused::D

    I have learned not to pay too much attention to a garda about some things, this being 1, if a sign put up by the council says you can park for 1 hr or 2 hrs thats what the time is, no matter what the garda might have to say about it!

    yes all parking bays are given a different time frame most just parking for car ones are three hours then car must be removed for at least one hour before returning to the same street! its all a bit silly imo

    well i kinda ment him...he wanted to just pay the 60euro but i think its silly to just pay without even looking into it and if it turns out hes in the wrong then he can go ahead and pay!

    As far as I know, it's 30 minutes unless stated otherwise.

    Also, I remember reading somewhere that time is also allowed for sorting paperwork (so not actively loading).
