Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Hillingdon Council PCN illegible photos
« on: September 03, 2024, 04:51:43 pm »
Hi can someone please advise.
I received a PCN from Hillingdon Council for having stopped (for 2 seconds) and the rear wheel of my car remaining in a hatched traffic box.
The photos of the car and the video snapshot on the Alcoa portal are completely illegible i.e. the number plate cannot not be read.
I made an initial representation that the PCN should be withdrawn because the photos don't actually prove it was my car.
I also disputed that my car was causing any obstruction but I accept the boxes are there for a reason.
Apart from the fine being totally disproportionate to the offence, does anyone feel I have any ground for taking the appeal further since the photos at least on the Alcoa portal don't prove it was my car?
Thanks
