The Flame Pit / Re: Access restrictions to stop rat running
« on: August 26, 2026, 10:55:33 am »
I think you are too heavily fixated on the 20 second difference. That could be be any number of things, a car pulling in or out of a driveway/parking space, having to wait at a Give Way, vehicle going slow. That doesn't prove nothing.

Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Re: Hillingdon Council Bus Lane - 8 Seconds over bus lane start time

I would also add that within 8 seconds is de minimus. Raising the 8 seconds in the appeal gives it a chance of being cancelled at this stage, avoiding the additional hassle if possible.

Based on what we so far it sounds unlikely that she would be found not guilty.

"There was still three lanes of very, very light traffic and most importantly no workmen. I don't know if this is about the time that roadworks start at night on motorways and if this was a factor in signage or confusion.

As we all know, VSL are not for roadworks, but for 'traffic flow' or hazard ahead, so there wouldn't be no workmen. Large overhead signs are usually pretty clear, and will backed up in the pictures provided by the cameras.

I suppose it may partly come down to the position as well.

If we say the number plate formats are usually:
LNNN LLL or LLNN LLL

Then if it was, for example, LO08 then it could be argued that follows the number plate format as L008. Where as if the error is in the last 3 letters then that is more of a mistake.

A lot of vehicle owners do have such knowledge but how would you know if you were a foreigner renting a car here, or the partner of an owner.

I supposed i've missed the point haven't I. We shouldn't be relying on the adjudicators. These should be getting cancelled at council level as a simple mistake, especially so where payment is made for parking.

Looks like you drove down the kerb to try and avoid traffic and had to stop. Can't see any defence here.

Council checker, https://www.gov.uk/find-local-council, with postcode SE8 3DW for 73 Creekside shows council tax for that house is Greenwich as well so game on. Seems like a pretty certain win to me.

I'd just try a basic appeal at first. You took a forbidden turn due to the emergency services blocking all the surrounding streets due to the building fire.

Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Re: CN appeal to adjudicator – bought car after PCN date, need final sanity check
« on: June 12, 2026, 09:26:35 am »
When you sell the car you fill in the date of sale, so the most likely explanation is that this was backdated, ever accidentally with a typo, or deliberately.

What is the date of issue on the logbook?

Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Re: Enquiry
« on: May 21, 2026, 03:34:21 pm »
No point contacting an MP. As charge certificates have been issued there is a standard procedure to get these reset to PCN level, providing you're in time, which is fairly common on this forum.

Someone will be along shortly to advise of the procedure.

Is this the stupid question thread? Can I join in? I usually check my tyre pressures in Asda, will it be a problem if i mix it with Tesco air?

Personally I would be appealing. 00:01 and Outbound, I'd like the odds of it being cancelled. Possibly even before adjudication.

It is worth noting that appealing through Birmingham and then the adjudicators would kick it several months down the line, so you will not be asked to pay until after your exams.

If you parked in the bay, and you opened the door, as you say, then why were you getting out the passenger side?

Do you have legal expenses cover on any other insurance? On your home insurance etc. They may be able to help you proceed.

Sadly not, I don't own a home, no never needed these kind of things. I did check with my bank etc back when it happened but, nope.

Have you renewed your car insurance since the accident? You may have legal cover on that.
