Hi Hippocrates,

Sorry, I realised after I’d replied to you, that I was reading the wrong paragraph and that the next paragraph is the same on my PCN as the one you quote from.
Think I had assumed that Haringey would have corrected any erroneous text once it had come to light.

But,  I also have to admit that I’m unclear what the error in that text is? I have read and re read.

I’m sure you’re sick of repeating yourself about this, but If you do think it’s worth me appealing , is there any chance of you spelling it out really simply for me so that I can then spell it out to Haringey in a convincing appeal?

 No worries if not, I had resigned myself to paying fine but would definitely prefer not to have to. Thanks again for your time

Although .. having looked again at road layout and the PCN image of my vehicle, my view of the junction and the road markings would have been quite impaired because there are two big vans parked at the top of Gorleston Road... worth a shot?

Thanks for swift response Incandescent, I think I was approaching that junction from Gorleston road but doubt that makes any difference,  I know and have acknowledged that I was at fault to blindly follow Google. 
 
The primary reason I was posting was that having seen the response by Hippocrates to the PCN from Billy Butcher, which is worded in the same way as mine,  I was hoping that my PCN might also be eligible for the same argument .. which I’m not sure I understand.. but thought worth asking

I will hold on and see if any update from Hippocrates, but have my cheque book ready .

Am now thinking I might ask Google maps to pay fine (joke) I will try to contact them because..I’m pretty sure this junction is incorrectly mapped.  When viewed on map the junction (with flower beds and markings is clear)  but in Street View it is different.. which is possibly why so many of us have been led , like foolish Google sheep, down the wrong route. I do live in London and I am usually vigilant! Hard lesson but has been learnt.

Hi, I hope you see this and can help .  I received a PCN yesterday which reads the same as that supplied by  author=Billy Butcher
1) PCN  from Haringey - Code 52(M) Failing to comply with a prohibition on certain types of vehicle (motor vehicle) Cornwall Road N15 (Gorleston Rd/Falmer Rd –East - West (X2)

2) I was also using Google Maps, driving from Norfolk to Finsbury Park, was redirected off the north circular at Bull Lane (just looked it up) have spent ages trying to figure out the route I was led on using GMaps (on my latop), with little success, it was a series of small roads I know as a driver I should be responsible for checking the road.. but have no recollection of this junction.

Can you suggest any challenge ... I have read your response to Billy Butcher and have comapred my PCN with there's and apart from dates they appear to be the same, so should I copy the text you supplied to them?

Thanks for your time and for your previous, as Pepipoo, successful help with two parking tickets.

Received this PCN in haringey I am not familiar with this area at all, also from looking at the picture evidence ( if you want to call it evidence) I have no idea where I went wrong or what I’m even looking at. I was following google maps and do not remember seeing any clear signs stating no motor vehicles allowed. Do I have a case for appeal here ?
