       Sorry as I did not realise the horse had bolted already. Keep us
       informed and I will assist you at the Tribunal or anybody else
       who wishes to offer.

       Dear All,
       As predicted by the professionals, Harrow rejected the appeal
       and answers with the following:
       [quote]
       Notice of Rejection of Representations. Your case comes under
       the London Local
       Authorities and Transport for London Act 2003
       Penalty Charge Notice number:IY00688508
       Date of contravention: 08 Oct 2025
       Location: CAMROSE AVENUE
       Vehicle registration: G26XXX
       Thank you for writing to us.
       We have carefully considered what you say but we have decided
       not to cancel your Penalty
       Charge Notice (PCN).
       We sent you a PCN because our camera evidence shows your vehicle
       disobeying a sign and
       using a route that was only for buses, cycles and taxis. The
       sign is blue and round, with a white
       picture of the vehicles allowed.
       Please be advised that the signage at the location is on both
       sides of the road, and in
       accordance with The Traffic Signs Regulations and General
       Directions 2016.
       The route in question is a section of Camrose Avenue where only
       buses, taxis and pedal cycles
       are allowed to drive through; it does not include the whole of
       Camrose Avenue. It is an 6'6"
       restriction, and should a driver feel that their vehicle would
       not pass through it, they are required
       to seek an alternative route.
       We have noted the comments made in your representation. You
       state the alleged contravention
       is not proved because the video does not show any alleged
       upright signage passed. Whilst
       we have taken into consideration the mitigating circumstances
       described, unfortunately, they
       do not warrant cancellation of the PCN. The CCTV footage clearly
       shows your vehicle driving
       through the buses, taxis and cycles lane and the signage was
       correctly displayed.
       The signs clearly advise motorists of the approaching width
       restriction in advance and the
       words "BUS GATE" are painted on the carriageway itself. The
       signage is lit from dusk til dawn
       and vehicle headlights further illuminate the signs and road
       markings.
       There is no legislation for there to be advanced warning signs
       for the buses, taxis and cycles
       only lane. There are directional white arrows on the road to
       give motorists guidance as to the
       lane they should be travelling in.
       It is unfortunate that you were unfamiliar with the rules that
       were in force. However, having
       viewed the full CCTV footage, we are satisfied the driver had
       ample time to get into the correct
       lane of traffic.
       You can view CCTV evidence of your case online at
  HTML https://www.harrow.gov.uk/pcn
       You have these choices:
       • You can pay the discount charge of £80.00. You have 14 days
       from the date of this letter
       being served to do this.
       • You can pay £160.00 if you miss the discount period. You have
       28 days from the date of
       this letter being served to do this.
       • You can appeal to the Parking Adjudicator using the enclosed
       form. You have 28 days from
       the date of this letter being served to do this. The Adjudicator
       can ask one side to pay costs
       if he or she believes, for example, that they have been wholly
       unreasonable. However, the
       Adjudicator rarely asks either side to pay costs. The
       Adjudicator is independent and both
       sides must accept the Adjudicator's decision. If you lose your
       appeal, you will have to pay
       the full charge rather than the discount charge (unless the
       Adjudicator decides otherwise).
       If you do nothing
       If, after 28 days, you have taken no action, we may send you a
       Charge Certificate increasing
       the charge from £160.00 to £240.00. You will then have 14 days
       to pay the increased charge.
       If, after the 14 days, you have not paid the increased charge,
       we may apply to the County
       Court to recover the money - plus court costs - from you.
       How to pay:
       • online at www.harrow.gov.uk/pcn and click 'Pay'.
       • by phone on (020) 8424 1220
       Yours sincerely
       Parking Representations Office

       You've left out the date of the NoR -  the chief reason we ask
       for images of paperwork rather than transcripts is important
       stuff gets omitted..
       What is the date?

       Typical NOR. Do you want to go to the Tribunal?

       [member=24]Hippocrates[/member] I think the grounds you provided
       made sense so I suppose yes? I'm only worried if the adjudicator
       asks a lot about the professional stuff so I'm wondering if you
       are happy and can you represent me in the tribunal? Many thanks.
