TFL Contravention 46: Stopped where prohibited
« on: »
Hi,

I had to drop off something at a shop, and stopped for for under a minute on an electric vehicle recharging point.

When I came to my car an officer had just arrived walking towards my car, I showed him I'm leaving, but he snapped a picture before I managed to drive away, and sent a PCN in the post.

Is there anything to appeal?

Can't tell you until you post the PCN, all sides, with name and address redacted. Why the PCN ? Because it may contain fatal errors that could render it void.

TFL photos:






Was the officer a civil enforcement officer, or a PCSO?

For reference, these videos show you what a PCSO looks like:

I practice law in the Traffic Penalty Tribunal, London Tribunals, the First-tier tribunal for Scotland, and the Traffic Penalty Tribunal for Northern Ireland, but I am not a solicitor or a barrister. Notwithstanding this, I voluntarily apply the cab rank rule. I am a member of the Society of Professional McKenzie Friends, my membership number is FM193 and I abide by the SPMF service standards.

If you have a video can you please post the whole thing?

I will try, but that shop is closing today for 2 weeks, so if they will not have the time to download today, we will miss to appeal during discount period.

Well the video is damning for TFL:



Draft reps:

Dear Transport for London,

I challenge liability for PCN GF81542033 on the basis of a procedural impropriety. The vehicle was driven away from the location where the vehicle was stationary before the CEO could have had time to start preparing the PCN, as confirmed by the video at (URL).

In these circumstances, there is no power to serve a regulation 10 PCN.

Furthermore, the PCSO was not wearing a uniform compliant with section 76(3) of the Traffic Management Act 2004, this is also a procedural impropriety.

It follows that the PCN must be cancelled.

Yours faithfully,


I am going to PM you the URL to put in the representation, do not click on the link. The reason for this is that I made a seperate upload of the video just for TFL, if they don't click on the link and watch the video the view count will remain zero, and then we'll have them for a failure to consider (as the regulations require them to consider all supporting evidence that is sent with the representations).

If the video's view count is still zero by the time the Notice of Rejection arrives, we can basically prove a further procedural impropriety in the form of a failure to consider.
