If you receive a ticket file it in the bin, along with any other correspondence from the company, never reply to them

I don't know the full SP about that airport, but I do know that many airports issue tickets via by-laws, which are 100% legal.

So please check before anyone bins tickets from them.

But does that give them legal powers to force the vehicle owner to reveal who was driving at the time ? As I said the offence is commited by the driver not the owner.

Ok for cabs it's easily incorporated into the licensing conditions to fine the licence holder if they can't/won't reveal the driver, but does it apply to private vehicles ? Bye-laws can only be used in addition to statute law, not to overide/contradict them.

I don't think it would matter who was driving, the owner will get the bill and be legally liable for it.

Unless the vehicle was reported stolen.
