    1P parking - 1hour free parking?!

    Ok, i am confused now.

    Parked in the city in the 1P zone for like 30 minutes. Got back and had a ticket. Doesnt 1P mean 1 hour of free parking?!

    Turn off the tap when you brush your teeth!!

    1P means there is a time limit of 1 hour for parking there.

    but yeah, funny that there wasnt "ticket" written under the '1P'

    yes in normal time but in the city of Perth's time it means the inspector is filling his quota with a ticket from a sap that cant prove he was there for an hour or 30 min or even 10 min.

    Where are the cars bays in the city that aren't ticketed? If you get a ticket, you've got your proof of how long you were there.

    this is why we need Melbourne-style park on footpath leaving at least 1m gap for pedestrians IMO.

    To keep the bay free for revenue-raising ticket-buying cars and to encourage motorcyclists to park at the designated motorcycle bays which have either a very short parking time or their own parking meter.

    That would ordinarily be 1 hours limit within the times specified. If it doesn't say 'ticket' or 'meter', then it's free parking. However, if it doesn't say 'motorcycle', you can't park a bike there.

    Were you on a bike? What does the ticket say?

    I like your thinking, but it'll probably result in taking number plate/bay numbers instead.

    If it doesnt say ticket, then fight it. Pretty sure there has to be some marking to indicate ticketed parking.

    Like this:
    http://www.perth.wa.gov.au/imagedb/674
    Some of them on hay st have

    fee payable xx to xx
    no fee payable xx to xx

    other times its free, no limit.

    Actually, what does the ticket say? It should give the infringement on it.

    you cant park a bike there if it is painted for car bays otherwise you can....

    ps
    get caught wiping off the chalk and it is an offence as well.....they would give the vehicle a ticket and let it go to court and you have to attend to say it wasnt you and you still get farked around
