Hi CP879,
Apologies, I'm still here
copy of pcn below.
I've already submitted an appeal which I am waiting to hear back from.
Below is a copy of my appeal:
=======
I am appealing this PCN on the grounds that the contravention did not occur.
I am fully aware of the restrictions on this bus lane, and entered it immediately after 7pm, which is when the restriction ends. I notice your one of your online still photographs of my car in the bus lane/stop states the time of 18.59.23, some 37 seconds before 7pm.
Two devices in my car, my dashboard clock and my mobile phone on a mount, both showed the time as 7pm, neither show the exact second, so as far as I was concerned the time was 7pm. I would not have entered the bus lane otherwise.
I would suggest that a contravention that occurs 37 seconds from the end of the restriction is effectively de-minimis and for that reason, no contravention occurred and the PCN should be cancelled.
