Can a traffic warden give you a ticket if you drive off?

Answered by David Ross

If the traffic warden has issued a Penalty Charge Notice but not yet attached it to the vehicle when you drive off, they can obtain the details of the registered keeper via the DVLA using the registration number and issue the PCN by post.
