I just spoke to TFL to request the video footage. They said they
have put through a request for the footage to be posted to me
but when I asked for confirmation that the case could be put on
hold until I receive the DVD, they said it is not in their
policy to do that and they wouldn't, nor could they confirm how
long it would take for the DVD to arrive.They said if you don't
make a rep before the date specified, the fee will just increase
- I explained I needed the evidence but they said there's
nothing they can do. Any advice? Or just sit and hope the DVD
arrives quickly!?

The 2003 Act under which the PCN was issued does not require the
video evidence to be provided before you reach the tribunal.
If in doubt, assuming you wish to contest the PCN, make a
representation that the alleged contravention did not occur but
that you have been obliged to make this representation without
having seen the cctv because TfL could not tell you when they
would send it.
The discount will probably be offered if your representation is
rejected but does not have to be.

Ok, thank you. I will make a representation making the following
points:
- I was turning left and only turned when I saw the traffic
ahead of me was moving and would allow me to cross through the
box junction. The car infront of me was moving into the space in
front and I was following the flow of traffic. If the car ahead
of me had been quicker in moving into the space infront of it
then the flow of traffic would have been quicker and my back
wheels wouldn't have been captured on the box even though I was
moving.
- I have requested video evidence to show I was moving but TFL
can not confirm when I will receive this so am having to make
the representation without it to avoid the charge increasing.
- I have lived here for over ten years and regularly use this
junction - I have never had this problem before.
- Other cars are clearly stationary in the box but their
registration plates are not visible. It is unfortunate that I
have penalised due to my registration being visible, despite my
car being on the move.
Are there any points I should drop, rewrite or add? Thank you.

Too long, don't admit to anything. Just copy what i said
starting from 'the alleged' to 'send it'

Ok, but will that not just result in them rejecting my rep in
favour of their images?

Who can say but better than them using all that you planned to
say against you.

But they will reoffer the discount (as long as you make
representations before midnight on Sunday), and by the time you
get the rejection you should have the video and at least then we
can see what's what.

I’ve received the DVD but it doesn’t work!
I have tried it on a PlayStation and a DVD player and in both
cases it says ‘cannot be played’. Other DVDs work perfectly fine
on both devices.
The status of my rep without the DVD footage is still currently
‘under review’.
what should I do?

Get a proper computer with a DVD drive. Failing that, you'll
have to pass the DVD to one of our members who lives in London,
or post it to someone slightly further afield.
