Hi people, I hope you are well. I will attach some photos with a penalty charge I got few weeks ago. Unfortunately, I was unable to open the letter too soon, so, today I've got another letter. Please have a look. Can I do something about that? I've read the forum, and if someone can guide me how to appeal this charge, it would be ideal.
Bit of context, of course. Me, a newbie from Watford, I didn't drive too much in London (the traffic is just pure chaos

), and, on that night, I followed Waze to my home destination. I was lost, because I have missed a roundabout exit, and Waze redirected my route. Of course, I have followed other cars in front of me, and in the car behind me was another person who followed me (I went out with that person, and I have asked if she received a penalty charge. She said no... mm, okay then.) Waze showed me that route and I didn't notice other suspicious marks or something. And for me, it was the first time driving in that area. I was kinda anxious, because I am not familiar with the London Traffic.
I consider this to be too harsh, and the amount of money is difficult for me, honestly. I am working like an animal, and this letter ''hurt'' my mental. Can you guys help me with that? I will keep my eyes on this forum and I will provide you with any info you might need. I want to thank you in advance, and I am very grateful for your time and everything.
Warm regards,
Florin.
