Croydon, PCN code 53J Pedestrian Zone, Warrington Rd by Epsom Rd
« on: »
Hi All :)

I appreciate any help on this.

Please see the PCN: Here

Image of offence: Here

Video: Here

Map location: Here

I didn't notice the sign at all  :'( ; the tree definitely obstructed it. Do I have a case to appeal, or should I pay the fine?

Also found this https://www.ftla.uk/civil-penalty-charge-notices-(councils-tfl-and-so-on)/no-left-turn-pedestrian-area-obstructed-by-hedge/msg19305/#msg19305 but not sure what the outcome of this was at the end.

Hopefully, I did this post right. Do let me know if I can do anything better.

P.S. The link to Mumsnet in the rules made my day!  ;D

There is an advance sign but the main signs are so badly positioned when turning left you could still win. We need to check the tribunal.

Thanks, @stamfordman. Oh, I didn't even see the one before, I didn't go that far behind on Google Maps. Would the advance sign mean I don't have a leg to stand on?

Do you know where I can search for Tribunals? Is there a link or database? I'm happy to rummage through to find the outcome if there is one.

Thanks again for your reply :)

First things first: access their website AS IF to challenge and screenshot the page(s) and report back.

My wife has the exact same fine 2 days later. She also noticed that the sign is obscured by trees but also too high to actually see upon entry from the drivers side. I know Croydon Council is broke but this is daft. Adding to that even if you were to see it upon entry the cars parked up on the side makes it impossible to turn around anyway so they get you regardless! Keep us posted on your outcome and we shall do the same (although we have not paid the fine yet as we are drafting a response)

Nope: first page which is BS:

Click your reason or search for it below
I wasn't aware of the rules
I was picking up/dropping off a passenger
it was an emergency
my satnav misdirected me
using cameras to catch drivers isn't fair
this is a hire car - the hirer should pay

Thanks @Hippocrates,

the reason is My satnav misdirected me.

But I can't see that as an option at all. Sorry, I'm I missing something? How do I get the option to show up?

This is my point: the website is not fit for purpose.

It was refused.

https://londontribunals.org.uk/ords/pwslive/f?p=14952:70::INITIALISE::70:P70_CAS_REFNO,P70_PCN_REFNO,P70_RETURN_PAGE,P70_AST_CODE:1619917,3010130,60,APPEAL&cs=3ZzHATlJ9inivHPjwSXl0DGnKamzZoCfzRUTZwRcZRpEb9L6g1_WCu9XoyQr3Whe-tMWHLJrRJEz135mYzskwUQ

The adjudicator's reasoning was clear.

For vehicles turning left, reading, learning and inwardly digesting the signs' wording is impossible and advance warning is required.

But it's there and GSV from 6 months ago shows that it's clear and not obstructed by anything.

OP, IMO you would not succeed with any argument related to the signs and would need to look for technical/procedural arguments.
