Bailiff is enforcing multiple Dart Charges

We are seeing a significant increase in enquiries from motorists where a bailiff is enforcing multiple Dart Charges that they had been unaware of. In most cases, the reason is due to notices being sent to a previous address, or where the Dart Charge account has been closed etc. Fortunately, legislation is in place to protect the motorist. All bailiff enforcement will be placed 'on hold'  for approx 4-6 weeks when a Dart Charge Out of Time Witness Statement (TE7 and TE9) is submitted to the Traffic Enforcement Centre (TEC). If accepted, all bailiff fees will be cancelled and a new Penalty Charge Notice issued allowing you to pay at the earlier discounted rate.

Bailiff Enforcement and Vulnerability

Mainly because of misleading information on the internet, many people believe that they can avoid bailiff enforcement by claiming that they are vulnerable or from a vulnerable household. By and large, when it comes to bailiff enforcement, vulnerability is usually reserved for extreme cases. An example could be where your medical condition could worsen if a bailiff were to visit you or where you are unable to manage your own affairs etc. Also, people may be constantly vulnerable (due to permanent lack of mental capacity or very severe disability etc).  Others may be  temporarily vulnerable. This page explores vulnerability in relation to bailiff enforcement.

Unfortunately, bailiff fees will not be avoided by this method. This pages outlines why.

Dart Charge Enforcement

We receive a significant number of enquiries via our helpline and online Enquiry Form regarding Dart Charge enforcement. The majority of these are from motorists who only became aware that a Penalty Charge Notice had been issued when they received correspondence or a visit from a bailiff. This is usually due to notices being sent to a previous address. Many times, the reason is because the motorist had forgotten to update his or her V5C (Log Book) with DVLA when moving house. There is a procedure that needs to be followed in such cases which is outlined on this page.
