47J - Stopped on a restricted bus stop stand
« on: »
Hi everyone,

I was driving my vehicle and turned the corner to drop off passengers. As I turned, the passengers said they wanted to get off here and opened the doors. I received a PCN as I stopped at a Bus stop with a wide yellow line.

Could anyone please let me know any grounds for an appeal for this PCN?

That's a slam dunk contravention. Unless there is something wrong with the PCN or signage I can't see a way out.

I can see an easy way out:



@mdar50743 virtually all adjudicators will allow an appeal based on the website not giving the statutory grounds of appeal, see rows 631 to 650 here.

If you wish to pursue this, just make a one-line representation saying that the contravention did not occur abd wait for the notice of rejection, an appeal can then be made to the tribunal. There's no point in adding anything of substance to the representations because the council will reject no matter what you say.

Make the representations online and keep a screenshot of the confirmation page.

Thank you so much @cp8759 that's very helpful.

I have got a reply from Ealing Council and they have rejected the appeal:

Well there are no absolute guarantees, but given how successful this ground of appeal has been it would seem silly not to carry on.
