Southwark code 52m - Failing to comply with a prohibition on certain types of vehicle - LARCOM STREET JUNCTION ETHEL ST

Hi everyone,

I would appreciate some advice on a moving traffic Penalty Charge Notice I recently received from Southwark Council.

Location: Ethel Street & Larcom Street
Google Street View Link
Contravention: 52 m - Failing to comply with a prohibition on certain types of vehicle (Motor vehicles)
Date & Time of Contravention: 15/08/2026 at 17:27
Date of Notice: 19/08/2026
PCN Number: JK20237655
Vehicle Registration (VRM): LN68VDD
PCN Google Drive

Could anyone advise if there are any known issues with the signage at this specific junction? I would also appreciate it if the experts could review the wording of the PCN to identify any technical flaws that could render it invalid.

There are advance warning signs on both approaches to the turn: -

The signs are rather small, and would be obscured by buses. Did you make a right turn or left turn ?

Thanks for your reply. I made a right turn into the road from Walworth Road into Larcom Street.
So it seems you missed the sign. Were you following any high-sided vehicles, or DD-buses just before the turn ?
Also were you following satnav ?

@onais: I will deal with this for you personally as the PCN is flawed.

There are "known knowns" which we may never have wished to know. This applies to them. But in the field the idea that there are also "unknown unknowns" doesn't apply as they hide in the aleatoric lottery. I know this is true and need to be prepared knowing the "unknown unknowns" may well apply.
