Alleged moving traffic contravention - no entry sign RBK
« on: »
Hello

Re: PCN Alleged moving traffic contravention - no entry

I would be grateful for any advice, though appreciate it’s rather complicated and late in the day.

Long story short, u received a letter from the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames for an alleged moving traffic contravention - turning left into a no entry road.

I wasn’t the driver, my partner was (insured) but as the registered keeper I know I’m liable for the ticket.

I appealed to the council based essentially on poor signage (original appeal included). This was rejected. Unfortunately I didn’t reference points of law as I usually would, simply because it was rushed.

I have now appealed to London Tribunals (appeal included) and I have an in-person tribunal scheduled for tomorrow. I’m wondering if someone has any hints or tips at this late stage. I know I can’t submit further evidence, and I have won at tribunal before, but would be grateful for any advice at all.

The pack of documents I was sent prior to the tribunal is extensive - about 20 pages so haven’t included it all (can do if needed). But attached is the original letter I received and my appeal statements.

I would think the advance sign for the junction mini-roundabout could be considered inadequate because it totally ignores the presence of the street on the left before the junction. The No Entry street should be shown with a "NO Entry" symbol on the sign. For me, the council have failed in their LATOR obligations: -
These Regulations prescribe the procedure to be followed by local authorities in England and Wales for making the main types of traffic and parking orders under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984...

Thank you - that’s good to hear and very useful. It does appear as though the signage is both inadequate and confusing. Many thanks again!
