If you are the owner of the car, the responsibility for paying or appealing the PCN is yours not the driver.

Date of NoR?

Please post all sides of the PCN and all sides of the NoR, so that the 'small print' can be checked for any possible fatal errors.

@Incandescent Traffic Penalty Tribunal rather than London Tribunals.

Yes, of course it is. I see so many London PCNs, the councils and TfL must be making millions. Essex runs into London so a bit of confusion there, sorry !

Here is a link to both the full rejection and original PCN.

Thanks so much.

Date of rejection is 22nd Dec. I submitted the appeal the 21st.

My appeal was that the road was closed, which they ignored entirely.

Just bumping this in the hope someone would mind checking the PCN/rejection for any issues please.

I would be most grateful.

They have re-offered the discount, so if you take them to London Tribunals it would be for the full PCN penalty, basically another 35 quid. It would all depend on whether the adjudicator accepts the argument that with a road closure and no buses operating along the street, whether the bus lane still applied. I'd like to find out for this forum but it's your money, not mine.

Yeah, thank you. It's not in London. I will likely pay it - but someone had suggested posting all the paperwork in case of errors first. Was just being hopeful!

Sorry, yes, it would be the Traffic Penalty Tribunal, which is a bit of a mystery, because their Statutory Register is not searchable on-line like the one at London Tribunals. I have been alarmed at some of the adjudications we have had reported to us.

Thanks for your help. I have paid it now as I didn't want to risk it.
