Hi Guys,
I am new to this forum but I have received a PCN from Hammersmith and Fulham Council, stating an entering and stopping in a box junction when prohibited offence. I am not from the area and was down there for the football, I do not know the area and was just following the sat nav in traffic. The offence is clear and correct but there is 42 day delay between the offence and the date of the notice. I lease my car and the lease firm charged me £12 to retrieve my details for H&F back in September, also the notice i dated the 6th and sent first class but it's 12th today when I received it. Now I thought that they had 14 days from either the offence or retrieving my details or this notice could be quashed as not handled in a timely manner.... Where do I stand with this, many thanks.

Isn't life funny!
It is a gyratory, but in their NOR the authority do not consider it as such: they refer to it only as a junction or T-junction. Good news, the argument regarding right turn could be applied, IMO. Bad news: the OP's car at the time of the contravention was not prevented from exiting by a car waiting to turn right, the car in question has completed the turn and is simply stationary outside the box. As per PMB, the discount looks attractive because adjudicators are difficult to pursuade on technicalities, if any exist, when the contravention is clear. |
