Hi all

Please can you help me with this PCN. I have already challenged it but as usual they have rejected it.

However, they have still offered me to pay the 50% discount.

I am relying on your expert opinion. What are the chances of winning at the Tribunal, or shall I pay the £80?

Challenge/Representations: Some how it is not letting me attach the document, so I pasted the text.

"Dear Parking Manager

Please note that I am challenging the PCN referenced above. My grounds are as follows:


1.       The signage at the entrance to Tavistock Avenue E17 is insufficient and inadequate. When travelling southbound on Blackhorse Lane E17 and making a left turn into Tavistock Avenue, there are no visible signs warning that there is restricted entry further down Tavistock Avenue. The only sign at the entrance which warns of "No Through Road" is positioned at such an angle that it is not visible to drivers entering from this direction.


2.       The signage in Tavistock Avenue where the restricted entry starts is not at the entrance to the road nor at any natural junction. The prohibition signs, CCTV signs are positioned further than 30m from the entrance to Tavistock Avenue. This causes confusion for any driver who having driven to this point without contravening any regulations, and once having assimilated the information on the various signs, is faced with an unexpected U-turn type manoeuvre which is difficult to carry out in an area of road constricted by parked cars. Furthermore, the "No Entry" markings on the road itself are confusing in conjunction with the signs, as they contradict the right of cyclists and those using non-motorised forms of transport to proceed. It felt like a trap.

In light of the inadequate, perplexing, and confusing signage I request that the PCN be cancelled."

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.
