As per @Hippocrates's suggestion I would just make the same representation again.

Ok thanks.

When it comes, should I just let you know, and you could advise me how to proceed?

I advise waiting for the Enforcement Notice and making exactly the same representations again. I would make no comment on their initial rejection.

As this is Ealing, they are now well aware of the camera certification issue so I see no point in raising it unless cp feels it is an avenue worth exploring just in case the camera used does not match any new certificate.  A tedious exercise.  But........?

As per the other forum:  a wholly unreasonable response which hopefully they will recapitulate since any formal Notice of Rejection with that kind of response may well provide a ground of appeal.

PCN EA58550435

I received post dated 13/07/2023 for an alleged contravention 34j - being in a bus lane in UXbridge Road. It was 00:12 and it was bucketing down. I could not see where exactly it is. I asked for the exact location (I couldn't view the pictures at first). All they did was reply to me on 27th July that:

'You state that it was dark and raining, and visibility was poor, and you could not see that it
was a bus lane. However, once a driver has deemed the conditions safe to drive in, they also
accept responsibility for obeying all road signs and markings.'

They furnished no further pictures other than a still camera shot and a few seconds of footage. I cannot ascertain where it is.

Please advise if I should pay or challenge?

I'm having some computer issues, so not sure if pics will come through:



Many thanks
