No u-turn, road closed, forced to?
« on: »
My son is the black car turning right into the side road. He was visiting a restaurant.

He did not realise the road was closed (due to poorly placed signage) until he was committed into attempting to enter it. You can see in the video, he was then forced to reverse. He still went top the restaurant, situated a few meters up from the start of the side road and has proof of payment.

Is this appealable?

The contravention is performing a prohibited turn, with the suffix u for u-turn. Looks bang to rights except of course they must consider the road closure as a right turn is permitted there. The only way to have avoided this is to drive into the closed road which looks to have a no entry sign, depending on whether there was an advance road closed sign and there looks to be the back of one by the traffic island.

I have to say I think this is a very harsh PCN, a money-grubbing PCN frankly.It is obvious that the OP did not intend to make a U-turn, but the road closure can only be seen once the turn has started. So what in hell was he suppose to do for heavens sake !!
I would take them all the way to London Tribunals if it were me, but it's the OP's money.

Just received an email from the London Tribunals saying that my appeal for an alleged YBJ infringement is not going to be contested by Havering. I am taking that as a sign (pun intended) and will appeal this one now. If I draft an appeal, will you guys have a look-see for me?
