Parking Tickets
Am I correct in saying that if a warden is writing out a parking ticket on your car and you drive off before they can give it to you or place it on
the car, then that ticket is void and you wil not be fined.

Depends on who is writting the ticket...
see..http://www.parkingticket.co.uk/em.html
quote:
If I return to my car whilst the ticket is being issued but drive off before it can be either handed to me or fixed to the vehicle am I still
liable?
This depends on who it is issuing the ticket.
If it is a council parking attendant then, to be valid, the ticket must be either handed to the driver or fixed to the vehicle. If you subsequently
get a Notice to Owner you should write to the issuing council, explaining the situation, and ask for it to be cancelled. If they will not cancel it
then appeal. Although the adjudication services do not categorise types of appeal anecdotal evidence suggests that between a third and a half of all
appeals are for this reason.
However, if you return to find a police officer or traffic warden in the process of issuing a ticket then, if you drive off, the ticket can be sent to
you as they enforce under different legislation.

In Westminster they are using camera to issue parking tickets, First you know about it is when it drops through the letter box complete with
picture.
You have been warned.
