       When the time comes, I suggest this:
       1. I retract my previous informal challenge.
       2. The video shows no evidence of my vehicle allegedly passing
       any upright warning signage at all. Therefore, the contravention
       did not occur.
       3. Your website does not contain any of the statutory grounds
       and, indeed, when entering any of them it states these are
       unavailable.
       In light of the above.
       Please cancel
       Point 3 may be debatable but I would use it at this stage.  More
       may be added later when the EN is seen.

       Let me think. cp8759 won a case re this council a few months
       back due to messed up evidence and an incredible refusal to
       attend, which they did in the end!

       1. I retract my previous informal challenge.
       2. The video shows no evidence of my vehicle allegedly passing
       any upright warning signage at all. Therefore, the contravention
       did not occur.
       3. The 1996 Act allows me to use "one or other grounds". So,
       your EN limits to one.
       4. The date of service is not necessarily the deemed date of
       delivery, Again, I refer you to the law in this regard.
       Considering the above, please cancel both documents.

       Hi,
       Yes I have challenged it based on the information Hippocrates
       gave me.
       I don't understand, I went onto the link and still shows no
       sign?
       Thanks
