Thanks for your reply @stamfordman

I will update if my appeal is successful.

Can I ask how you were able to see the webcam footage?

Thanks again!

Thanks for the speedy reply @Incandescent 🙏

Yes I've learn my lesson and have been advised to get a holder for my phone and use an up-to date map app system like Waze.

To your first point, good spot about the signs not being illuminated - the contrast from midday direct sun to shade is drastic. I may use that to appeal, with not being able to see when the road sign was tell me not to continue on.

ManyThanks

Hi FTLA,

I grew up in the area, so I know it really well, you could always drive down church street.
I was following my satnav (an old model from before this LTN was created) through hackney to visit a friend and it took me down church street.

I find these signs hard to spot - and think they're not big enough. That's maybe a separate issue, but these councils know what they're doing trying to generate as many fines as possible!

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Is there a case for an appeal here? £65 is a real stretch for my finances at the moment.

Many thanks,
Wasabi

We can guide you through the process and I could even act as your representative in court

Sorry for the very delayed reply. Thank you for your offer and advice, it was very generous to offer your time in court. In the end, I decided it wasn't worth my time, however frustrating it is and how I think it's a massive money grab from the council.

Thanks again. Happy Holidays.

Hi FTLA

First-time poster: I rented a van through Zipcar and have just been billed £80 for a PCN (£65 for fine, £15 for admin).

This is a road I've driven on a few times over the last 10 years and maybe call me un-aware but the no-entry sign I thought was for the car park on the left. The times I'd driven over it in the past, I hadn't got a PCN, and looking at Google Street View there were times when you could drive over the bridge...

Zipcar had already paid the fine and charged my card.

Searching here and Pepipoo this is a camera that's caught a lot of people with its confusing signage. Now though looks like it's pretty clear and I made the mistake. I just wanted some advice on this situation and if I could/should appeal as money is really tight for me at the moment and might have to start intermittent fasting this month!

Thanks for your help.
