The contract you enter into at a Pay and Display car park which entitles you to park is twofold:
Pay for the ticket, and
Display the ticket.
Failure to do either, no matter what the circumstances, will result in a charge. It is your responsibility to ensure the ticket is securely and prominently displayed.

Very often at the type of Pay & Display car park that you need to pay for motorbike parking at, you will find that you have to enter either numbers or letters of your vehicle registration.
Therefore, there is very little point in stealing a ticket - and there is also a way back for the car park operator to check if you have paid or not.

Regarding the contract in terms of pay for the ticket and displaying the ticket. I appreciate the theory but the point I meant was. Supposing this has been done and a third party removes said ticket. Clearly the motorcyclist has fulfilled their obligation and then been transgressed against. In such circumstances should a fixed penalty be applied, is the burden of proof on the 'prosecutor' to prove the the motorcyclists guilt beyond reasonable doubt?
