Were you on the North side or the South side of the Jones Road junction?

If you're written appeal is a vague as your directions as to where you were parked then you're in bother.

The clampers were in the right here, I'd wager. They know their spots and where the usual suspects park. They also know the law on parking inside out. I'm not ruling out that they made a mistake, just that I'd reckon they are in the right.

Greybottle

Were you parked here by any chance?

Very close. You will see exactly in the parking space a lady with child pram

The lady with the pram is walking along the road where double yellow lines are

There's a small section with no lines.

Not three lanes though.

is it here:

If so I presume you were parked at the end of the double yellow line, but opposite the continuous white line, which is also in a "3 lane" section of the road.

I presume you were not blocking the entrance to the house.

There is an space with no yellow lines. Just in there

Jesus H Christ.

Clonliffe Road, Dublin 3.
Western side of the Jones' Road junction.
Outside first house on the left heading towards Drumcondra Rd. (R132)
Parked where double yellow lines end.

^ Put that in your appeal, and not the useless instructions that you put in the posts above.

dccaresuckers

No clearways signs at all, all other cars parked in line at same side of the road. Really unfair my clamp!!!!

how.gareth

Kind of looks like it’s ok to park there tbh

We have contacted DSPS on your behalf and they contend that the vehicle was correctly clamped, I have also added some additional photos from the DSPS crew and their response in red below.



The vehicle was clamped for being parked opposite continuous white line.



The area where this vehicle is clamped is a single lane road and as the member pointed out in their email to you parking is prohibited opposite a continuous white line under the following regulation of the road traffic act:



Parking is prohibited:
- Where there is a single or double continuous white line along the centre of the road (except in urban areas where the road is wide enough for three or more traffic lanes).



The road is wide enough for one Lane of traffic on the both sides of Clonliffe Road by from the junction of Ballybough road to the junction of Jones Road



Once at the junction of Jones road , the road on both sides remains one Lane(towards Drumcondra Road) the only section of roadway along here that has 2 designated lanes of traffic is at the junction of Clonliffe Road and Jones Road where there is a Lane to facilitate a right turn for vehicles to proceed southbound on Jones Road towards no RTG circular road (junction with Fitzgibbon Street).



Therefore in summary the vehicle was clamped correctly.



If the driver feels the need to appeal the decision they can do so via the following methods :

I wasn't in the wrong. In that section of the road there are clearly three lanes.
Why do you think I'm wrong.? They just said rubbish IMO

A Law

If I was clamped there I'd feel very hard done by, as would you.
