Received 2 PCN for entering a bus lane in Preston, lancashire

Hi,
I have received 2 penalty charge notices for going through a bus
lane, Both times the same bus lane at around a time which was
within 5 minutes of each other, ( i was lost)
I received a letter dates 21/02 and then another 24/02.
They are suggested to be discounted to £35 each - which i was
going to go ahead and pay. However on is £70 although it has not
still even been 21 days on that either, they are both within the
dates to be £35.
I am going to call them tmrw and see what the issue is,
However whilst i was not going to challenge it, it got me
thinking if they can make errors on that there maybe other
errors.
There is now only sa few days left for the £35 to become £70 so
not sure of worth challenging or what options i have.
Thank you for your help

You have to use a hosting site then post a link to it. It's in
the instructions I posted. Forum doesn't have enough space for
much. It means we don't have to pay a lot.
Please also post a GSV link to the location.

That's the location for the first PCN
Here's the second location

Looks like the OP drove all the way up Corporation Street and
hence passed the two bus gates. We need to see all pages of the
PCN to see if the same fatal errors are present. There is a
warning about the bus gate before one gets t them: -

So do you need to see the back of the PCN? As all the driver and
pictures info is on the first page / the back is about how to
pay the charge.

Yes. You'd be surprised how often there are errors in the 'small
print' which are fatal to a PCN's enforcement. Until the experts
here have a look, they cannot spot any errors.
