TfL PCN (code 46) for stopping on a red route (Stoke Newington Road N16)
« on: »
Hi everyone,

Hope you all are well.

I’ve received a Penalty Charge Notice from TFL for “stopping where prohibited (on a red route or clearway)” — contravention code 46.

Details:
Location: Outside 29–31 Stoke Newington Road, N16
Date/time: 12th October at 17:49


I stopped briefly (under 5 minutes) to load goods, in what I believed was a loading bay. Since it was a Sunday and I was in the usual 7am-7pm loading exception for nearly everywhere else, I thought that loading in the bay was fine. Senseless mistake on my side


I’ve checked the TfL evidence photos, which show my vehicle within the marked bay. I was genuinely there to load and didn’t realise that the loading hours had already ended. I got evidence of loading if needed.

I’m planning to make a polite representation explaining the circumstances and asking for discretion, as I was using what I believed to be a permitted loading area and was only stopped briefly for legitimate loading.

I would like to ask for any advice, either improving my reps or going a different way.

Thank you for your time, it is really appreciated.

It's very easy to get caught out in London, especially if you don't read the sign.

I suggest you submit a non-confrontational representation based on your narrative here; you might get a result, but TfL, like the London councils are very unforgiving as refusing reps means most people then cough-up. From looking at the location on GSV, and reading your narrative, it's difficult to see any winning possibilities based on the statutory grounds for appeals, but submit your reps anyway.

Others may suggest a different approach.
