Ok thanks, so in short, not much chance with an appeal?

Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Re: Luton Airport PCN
« on: Yesterday at 12:25:39 pm »
Thanks very much, appreciate your input. One important factor is that I didn't technically park, I remained in the car throughout. Would that make a difference you think? Would an appeal be worth it on those grounds?

Appreciate any thoughts, advice you have.
Many thanks.

Regularly patrolled by Luton's CEOs up until 10pm or later. Did you not see one? Or are they now using enforcement cameras?
Edit: Second look I see it's a camera enforcement. I drop and pick up regularly at Luton, hadn't noticed but not surprised, there is now camera enforcement on the approach roads. I have an account with APCOA for an easier life.
Thanks for your response. So should I just lap it up and pay? Is it worth appealing? My argument would be that I stopped on a side road, though the charge says "red route or clearway". If I do appeal and am unsuccessful will I have the opportunity to pay the reduced amount that they offer?
Many thanks.

Hi, I received a PCN for stopping on a "red route or clearway" near Luton Airport, see photos. I had gone to pick someone up but was a severe delay to the flight so was unsure what the airport pick up zone laws were. I waited, along with 3 other cars, in a turn off, and entrance to a business. I waited in the car the entire time, with the engine running (was heatwave weather so had AC on) so not sure what definition of stopping they use. Is it worth appealing on those grounds? Or is there a better angle to appeal or should I just lap it up? TIA

« on: August 16, 2025, 12:40:42 pm »I'm aware of that, but is the PCN not void in that case? It should state that representations may be disregarded if received more than 28 days from date of service?Yes, because the period for submitting reps has been truncated by 2 days, this ought to win at adjudication as it is a major error; one that has caught out other councils too, I believe.
Thank you for your responses, greatly appreciated. So do you think on account of this major error I should lead my appeal with this? What's the best way to word it?
Many thanks

Hi, any advice would be most welcome.
The alleged offence happened on a Sunday evening, 3 August, at 6.40pm in north London
I was taking my son to a gig at the Spurs stadium, I don't know the area at all and was looking for parking. I had no idea that I had done this until I received the PCN. Looking back, there was no prior warning that you were about to enter a bus lane but seems that there are no alternative options. Naturally when you look at the evidence you can see that there were signs and I'm sure locals might be aware of this but for out of towners! It's not that you could turn left/right or use a different lane. The only option is to completely turn around. Bull lane is a long, straight road for a bus land to suddenly appear seems a little sinister. Can argue also that just before 7pm on a Sunday night on a minor/irrelevant road!
I appreciate that I might not have any grounds other than human error and question the times that they monitor this road, you see many bus lanes that have flexible hours.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
TIA
