Rather too many people who come on this forum rely so totally on satnav that restriction signs do get missed; how could the satnav be wrong ? Well it is wrong a great deal ! Poeple say, "I updated it only 2 days ago". Trouble is the underlying data the satnav relies on can be way out of date. In recent times, a new road built here in Crewe only came onto my satnav four years after it opened !! What hope is there that time-based entry restrictions will be on the data, or buslanes ? Not much, I say. It is of paramount importance when driving in big and some not-so-big cities that one's eye is alert to signs barring entry, no matter what the satnav may be telling one to do.

Were the signs warning of the bus lane adequate or not? I mean, if the signs were good but you just didn’t notice them, it’s probably your error, but if the signs were inadequate for some reason you might have the basis of a successful appeal.

Hello,
I have receieved a PCN from Salford City Council for a bus lane contravention. Would it be worth appealing this. I was using a courier SATNAV and unfortunately the directions provided took me on this road, and I did not realise I was within the operating hours of the bus lane
Please find attached PCN :
