       Here are:
       The Tower Hamlets (Parking Places) (Map Based) Order 2019
  HTML https://drive.google.com/file/d/18h1pfNIANxEuxkrIUf3q6tPky0pCyhUe/view

       Map legend

       GSV:
  HTML https://maps.app.goo.gl/eMF6S5YpG4iU8fmJ8
       Article 9 of the order provides that:
       [indent]
       Articles 6, 7 and 8 of this Order do not apply to the following:
       (a) a vehicle where the person in control of the vehicle is;
       [indent]
       (i) required by law to stop;
       (ii) obliged to stop so as to prevent an accident;
       (iii) prevented from proceeding by circumstances outside their
       control;
       [/indent]
       [/indent]
       If the car breaks down and won't move, that fits under
       circumstances outside your control. Of course the councils'
       appeals officers are unlikely to ever read a traffic order, so
       we'll have to take this to the tribunal, but it's hard to see
       how you could lose.
       By the way did you have the car repaired and what was the
       underlying issue with it?

       power on. I had to get it repaired

       So do you have some paperwork about that repair, such as a
       diagnostic report or an invoice for parts and labour?

       OK so when you get the notice to owner we'll have plenty of
       evidence to put forwards.

       Here you go:
       [indent]
       Dear London Borough of Tower Hamlets,
       At the material time my vehicle had broken down and I was
       therefore prevented from proceeding for reasons beyond my
       control, which is an exemption under article 7(1)(a)(iii) of The
       Tower Hamlets (Waiting Loading and Stopping Restrictions) (Map
       Based) Order 2019.
       I had to get my vehicle towed away so I attach a copy of the
       towing receipt, I also attach a copy of the receipt from the
       garage that repaired the vehicle.
       In light of the above the penalty charge must be cancelled,
       there is no discretion about this.
       Yours faithfully,
       [/indent]
       Make sure to keep a screenshot of the confirmation page. Note I
       referenced the wrong order earlier on, the correct reference is
       in the draft above. The relevant order is here

       Have an update. I’ve received a response from them and sadly
       it’s a NOR!
       I’ve attached the letter to this post. The claims that the
       recovery company doesn’t exist are just out right lies. Here is
       their companies house link:
  HTML https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/12472040
       Clearly their address states it’s a unit. The unit is between
       houses in a street. The receipt of from a recovery company who
       recovered my vehicle and dropped it to a nearby garage! So don’t
       know why they’re saying garage receipt.
       Also, this statement:
       “There is no exemption to leave an alleged broken-down vehicle
       unattended on a yellow line restricted area.”
       This is just beyond stupid now. Wasting my time constantly
