       Good job you didn't pay as they employ eKashu which was
       dissolved in 2000.
       Dear Anonymous Parking Officer
       I am sitting in the smallest room of my house.
       Currently, your letter is in front of me.
       In a moment it will be behind me.
       Which is just as well because I do not take too kindly to the
       extrapolation of the urine.
       Yesterday from @mrmustard:
       ETA Register of Appeals
       Register kept under Regulation 20 of the Road Traffic (Parking
       Adjudicators) (London) Regulations 1993, as amended and
       Regulation 17 of the Civil Enforcement of Road Traffic
       Contraventions (Representations and Appeals) (England)
       Regulations 2022.
       Case Details
       Case reference 2250264719
       Appellant *********
       Authority Royal Borough of Kingston Upon Thames
       VRM LL74UXG
       PCN Details
       PCN QT10607452
       Contravention date 22 Apr 2025
       Contravention time 16:28:00
       Contravention location Kingston Road
       Penalty amount GBP 160.00
       Contravention Entering and stopping in a box junction
       Referral date -
       Decision Date 20 Aug 2025
       Adjudicator Darminder Lehal
       Appeal decision Appeal allowed
       Direction
       cancel the Penalty Charge Notice.
       Reasons
       1. This is a personal appeal against a penalty charge notice
       issued by the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames .
       2. The Appellant states he stopped to let the vehicle join from
       the left hand side of the adjoining road. The Appellant asserts
       he did not stop due to the presence of a stationary vehicle. The
       appellant also raised the point that the box junction is marked
       beyond as required under the Traffic Signs Regulations and
       General Directions 2016 and are therefore unenforceable.
       3. The Enforcement Authority submit that the Appellant’s vehicle
       was observed entering and stopping in the yellow box junction on
       the date in question. The Authority have provided CCTV of the
       alleged contravention and photographs. They assert that the
       Appellant’s vehicle enters the box junction when the exit lane
       was not clear. The Authority say it is the motorists
       responsibility to assess the road situation ahead and only enter
       the box junction if they can be sure of crossing it without
       stopping.
       4. There are 3 elements to this this contravention, firstly that
       the driver causes the vehicle to enter the junction. Secondly
       that it is stopped in the box junction. Thirdly that the vehicle
       has to stop due to the presence of stationary vehicles. I do not
       find that the third element has been satisfied.
       5. This box junction is not only marked at the junction between
       these two roads but also in advance and beyond that junction. It
       is not therefore marked in compliance with The Traffic Signs
       Regulations and General Directions 2016 this penalty charge thus
       being unenforceable.
       6. Accordingly, the appeal is allowed.
