Title: Re: Southwark, code 32d Failing to drive in the direction shown by the arrow on , Peckham Rye Junction East Dulwich (Rig

Hi, I wanted to know the result of this and if any advice was available.

I can't clearly remember the drive, but it was late at night. I usually drive the same way back from work (night shift), so I'm not sure why or if there are more on the way.

Had to spend a while to set up a vpn to see the old Imgur pics as the UK is recently blocked :(

Mine's here, the same place, direction, everything.

I just opened the letter today (I haven't replied or appealed) after spending ages yesterday morning challenging an unrelated private parking charge that I'm just as confused by. I'm having a really hard time and could use any help.

Can send any more info, not sure if Hippocrates was able to help nasmin

Thanks

Hi All

Appealed this on the basis of 1. procedural impropriety - Breach of Schedule 1 Paragraph 5 2. Lack of Adequate Signage or Road Markings 3. Traffic Chaos and Obstruction at Time of Alleged Contravention. The appeal was rejected and the letter is attached.

I also looked on the site this morning and there is a threat to increase the fee to £240 if I didn't pay - screen shot attached.

Any advice as to whether I just pay this or take it to London tribunals.

Thank you for any advice

Collateral challenge@ they cannot issue a charge certificate 28 days from the date of the notice. Refer them to Schedule 1 para 5 etc.

Website: before you make representations, it is essential you screenshot what the webpage says re price increase and when.

Until we know what is there, it is difficult to give advice.

Hello - do you think I can argue that this is new? What would be an appropriate response

I had a look at this junction on GSV and there are no directional arrows on the last view of July 2024, so this looks like a fairly new restriction. The only thing there is the two traffic lanes on Peckham Rye here: -

They may have put in new signal heads that split the green phase for the two lanes.

This location rings a bell but I can't recall cases - the tribunal register could be checked.

Our member Hippo may have something on website/PCN issues.

Hi All
Wanted some advice - it may be that I have to swallow and pay this one but wanted to check before I did so.

Received a PCN for an infraction on 30/05/25 for failing to drive in the direction shown by the arrow on a blue sign (proceeding in the wrong direction).

The driver swears that he was doing what he always does (so will go this weekend and get some photos).

I haven't got a link to the video but will call and ask for this tomorrow but wanted to share the photos to see if anyone had had this issue
