10 minute grace period

Under the Deregulation Bill, from 6th April 2015, if a vehicle is parked legally on a designated parking bay when it is initially parked, a ten minute grace period should be applied before issuing a Penalty Charge Notice.

This applies for public regulated parking both on and off-street.

Vehicles parked illegally can receive an immediate Penalty Charge Notice without the 10 minute grace period.
