Dear Sir or Madam,
I wish to challenge the above PCN on the following grounds:
1. The PCN Does Not Contain the Mandatory Wording Required by
Law
Section 4(8)(v) of the London Local Authorities and Transport
for London Act 2003 requires the PCN to state that an increased
charge may be payable if the penalty is not paid within 28 days
beginning with the date of the notice.
Your PCN instead states:
“If you fail to pay the Penalty Charge or make representations
before 28 days beginning with the date of service, an increased
charge of £240 may be payable.”
This is wrong because:
•
date of notice),
•
representations,
•
ambiguity, and
•
A PCN missing required information is legally defective and
invalid.
2. Signage is Inadequate and Unsafe at the Location
The restriction sign on Sydney Road is placed at an abnormally
high level, and is not visible to drivers turning right.
At the point a driver must decide, they must also:
•
•
•
It is not possible to safely look upward at a sign placed
outside the normal viewing height.
The signage is therefore not sufficiently clear or conspicuous,
and the contravention is not enforceable.
3. The Photographic and Video Evidence is Blurry and Does Not
Show the Sign
The images and footage provided both in the posted PCN and
online are unclear, blurred, and do not show the sign or its
wording.
If the enforcement camera cannot capture the sign legibly, a
moving driver cannot reasonably be expected to read it.
The evidence does not prove the restriction or the
contravention.
4. The Penalty Exceeds the Amount Due Because the PCN is Not
Lawfully Issued
Due to the statutory defects in the PCN wording and inadequate
signage, the penalty exceeds the amount applicable in the
circumstances.
Conclusion
For the reasons above, the PCN must be cancelled.
If the Council does not accept this challenge, please provide
the full evidence pack, including:
•
•
