Stopped to enter a shop. Was parked for probably 3 minutes with my son in the car.

Yes I now of the other one. But I didn’t even stop, did not walk away from the car, engine on. I reversed onto a residents bay so I have already contested that. No idea how they can even issue the ticket.
Because they want your money.  Never, ever, think there is any morality and benevolence in London councils; there isn't !

We have another case here - I had a look at Maps and there is another sign further back I think, and the camera angle here is through the tree but the view from street level is probably OK.

And the video won't endear you to an adjudicator as a cyclist goes by...

Why did you stop there?

Also you have another one here incoming from Monday...

The CCTV was installed apparently 2 weeks ago and they are catching all unaware motorists as the cycle lane is new. Furthermore the blue sign is partially covered by a tree so not exactly obvious. Is there any chance i can contest it?
