Dear Ms. Davis,
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to formally request a penalty abatement for my recent violation. Although I understand the importance of adhering to the rules and regulations in place, I believe there are extenuating circumstances that warrant consideration for this request.
The violation occurred on October 5, 2050, when I unknowingly parked my vehicle in an area designated as "No Parking." However, I would like to bring to your attention that the sign indicating the restriction was not clearly visible due to poor lighting in the area at the time. As a result, I unintentionally violated the parking regulation.
I fully acknowledge my responsibility as a law-abiding citizen, and I genuinely apologize for any inconvenience caused. It is crucial to mention that this is the first time I have been involved in such an incident. Throughout my years of driving, I have maintained a clean record and have always followed traffic laws diligently.
Enclosed with this letter, please find photographic evidence I had taken immediately following the incident. The pictures clearly depict the dim lighting conditions which contributed to my inability to see the sign properly. I believe this evidence further supports my request for penalty abatement.
In light of the circumstances, I kindly request that you consider reducing or waiving the penalty associated with this violation. I assure you that I have taken necessary measures to ensure this mistake will not happen in the future, such as being more attentive to signage and expanding my knowledge of local parking regulations.
Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I am more than willing to discuss this further if required or provide any additional information that might aid in reaching a favourable decision. I genuinely appreciate your consideration, and I look forward to resolving this issue amicably.
Sincerely,
Jane Smith
