well done, but weird. You got off an a technicality, when he should have thrown it out because the road was blocked. What is the matter with them sometimes. The implication is that if they hadn't cocked up the contravention, you would have lost.
Beau larks.
It wasn't a technicality, as I pointed out way back in post #10 the contravention stated on the PCN didn't occur, thats not a technicality it never happened.
That IS the technicality. Council accidentally referred to a round sign,when the sign in question was identical but square. OP SHOULD have got off, not because of a silly council mistake, but because the road was blocked and he HAD to reverse.
