Free Traffic Legal Advice

Looking for parking on Barkingside High Street. I drove past occupied parking bays, turned right into Horace Road and u turned. Turned left back onto the high street and stopped on the left on a bus stop temporarily, waiting for traffic to pass so that i could U turn again. I put on my reverse lights but then saw a person leaving a parking bay on the opposite side. I proceed to drive forward and park in the parking bay.

The council evidence shows me temporarily stopped in the bus stop with my lights on , but the video cuts when my reverse lights come on. There is no further video of me continuing to park in a bay.

I received a Contravention notice.

Do i have grounds to appeal on basis that I did not stay parked in the bus stop?

I don’t have that option anymore from the Council as the initial appeal went in (as I had mentioned previously). In the council website, the only option is to Pay or appeal via the tribunal

“
• Or you can appeal to the Environment & Trafic Adjudicators (ETA, part of London Tribunals) using the enclosed appeal form. This must be done no later than 28 days of this letter being served.

Video shows that I slowed down and only entered the junction when there was a clear exit. I misjudged the space available however, so ended up with my rear on the painted area.

There were temporary roadwork traffic lights up ahead which caused the traffic to slow ( I couldnt see these beyond the back of the van in front). The van stops well back of the car in front.

Do I have a case which shows awareness of the Highway Code, but was a simple case of misjudgement of space up ahead?
