       As I was sitting in front of the current Chief Adjudicator, I
       can honestly state that he shook his head from right to left in
       disagreement when the TFL barrister in his final submissions
       said that CCTV enforcement was valid!  The previous CA had left
       the room by this stage.

       From the report, The Standard's reporter found Karen's analogy
       "bizarre", but not the judge's foreshadowing.

       So apparently the pepipoo directors are sitting on £30k that's
       apparently held for some future big case. I can't imagine
       there's going to be another "big case" any time soon, anyone
       fancy seeing if they'd be willing to fund an appeal to the Court
       of Appeal?

       I laughed deliberately so loudly in an attempt to blow off the
       TFL barrister's wig.  ;D
       The ES often get it wrong.  I believe someone else wrote the
       argument!

       I've just heard that TfL have won the judicial review, the
       interested parties have until Thursday to ask for permission to
       appeal.

       Paragraph 17 is interesting, as it suggests that without an
       upright sign, there cannot be any CCTV enforcement of a double
       red line.

       Having only skim read the judgement two thinks sort of come to
       mind.
       Firstly the upright sign it must be present in the bay. We used
       to argue regularly that the sign if not facing traffic fell
       outwith LATOR but that has fallen away as not relevant I think
       it can now be re born
       Secondly the contravention it's self 46 stopped where prohibited
       on a red route or clearway. if you are within the permitted time
       of bay operation then can this stand as a reason to believe you
       commit that offence. I would suggest it should be one of the
       various parking offences code 30 re parked in a disabled bay or
       24 for a loading bay without loading

       I'm not sure that ever fell away, we've been winning cases
       throughout on the basis of inadequate signage, including one
       that TfL didn't challenge because the signage was indisputably
       inadequate, and a double red line where the sign said no
       stopping 7 am to 7 pm (the appellant stopped after 7 pm).
       The problem with the bays is that they're not designated parking
       places, so the other codes cannot apply.

       If not a designated parking place, then which part of para. 3 to
       Part 2 of Schedule 7 applies?
