Title: Re: TFL, 31 - stopping in box junction, HOMERTON HIGH ST/HOMERTON FIRE STN EMERGENCY EXIT

I'm a bit confused. Did your communication with TFL solely request the video and not include anything which could be construed as representations against the contravention?

You legally have until 28 July to submit representations so if you haven't submitted any yet, they shouldn't be limiting your opportunity to only 14 days from their letter.

Subject to confirming no representations submitted yet, I would sit tight for a couple more days and see if the video comes. Are you able to submit representations electronically or only by post?

This is very strange. The images don't show the exit to the box and barely show the enterance. The quality of the images are shocking. You are allowed to enter a box if your exit is clear - you can't see that. There's no context, it just shows your car. #

Bumping this so @MrChips who's been active in the last hour and is the Yellow Box knowldge man can maybe asist. I'd personally appeal on the basis the images they've provided do not allow you to form an appeal and that they should wait until you have got the CCTV of the alleged contravention - which will come on a DVD disk, btw - to allow you to put your case forward

Hi,

Got this PCN from TFL, I don't remember the situation. The pictures show my car with one wheel just over the entrance of yellow box. I have asked them for a video, because I want to see if upon entering the box the way was clear to exit.

Please see PCN and response to my request for video evidence.

They are dealing with the request for video as a separate issue but have given me 14 days to appeal.

Do you have advice on what my next steps should be?

Thanks all!
