A shorter link to the Daily Mail article is
HTML https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12996921/Bristol-Ulez-fine-wording-clean-air-zone-money.html
However, this article appears to be based on the following,
which give a much fuller account of Bristol's failings re its
ULEZ and the efforts of one mr.John Lyon to expose them.

which also contains this relevant quote
[quote]“Then, when we go to the Traffic Penalty Tribunal to
appeal again, the council waits until the penultimate day of the
fortnight they have to respond, and on the penultimate day they
make an offer which waives the fine but asks the driver to pay
the initial £9 charge,” said Mr Lyon.
“They do this to make it so the stats show that they’ve
technically ‘won’ that challenge, as they did get the CAZ charge
paid. But if that offer is declined, the next day they will
withdraw the entire penalty and the charge, with about ten hours
to go. That means the Traffic Penalty Tribunal never gets to
actually assess the points made in the challenges. The council
is shying away from having that assessment done and a judgement
made,” he added.[/quote]
