EDRH1114090399 Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Hi, today we?ve just received another PCN from the Southwark Council, alleging a driving contravention on Townley road. The PCN had a picture of our vehicle committing the alleged offence. On the day in question we did not use our car. We can only surmise that Southwark?s automated computer system has used a different ?picture? from the previous contravention (a traffic enforcement camera ?picture? is actually a video still). We strongly suggest anyone who has recently received a PCN, for any alleged driving contraventions involving any of the new cameras installed in East Dulwich in the last six Months, and if you have already paid a fine, then to complain, and to challenge the Council. You may have been fined more than once for the same alleged driving contravention.

KidKruger Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Double-counting, just like Covid testing last year which was also double-counted.Clearly a thing now !

malumbu Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 I've not been caught on Townley Road. I've got caught on other roads, received the still and thought 'damn', I must be more careful in future.

AylwardS Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Although this will not change anything about penalties already issued you can register for the consultation on the review until 10 May 2021 and you will be advised when the consultation is issued. Register athttps://consultations.southwark.gov.uk/environment-leisure/dulwich-review-registration-form/You will still be able to respond to the consultation if you don?t register but this will make sure you are aware its been issued.

malumbu Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Ironically ?2.5 million is the average house price in the village, spooky, they must be connected.

mrwb Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Cars lining up today during the restrictions... Southwark must be raking it in. Seems to be the signs aren't good enough.

a.un Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Would you happen to know which one on Walworth is it? I got a PCN on an outrageous LTN scheme camera on Manor Place Road - road with one lane blocked (ironically) by Southwark Council's houseing scheme work (blocked for at least 4 years and a massive hazard) and the one lane that's open has 4 traffic signs. It's as if someone was seeking a way to make money.

mrwb Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Such fines should only be usable to reduce the council tax of residents. Then we would see what is actually needed....The problem is the legislation, which allows usage only to use the fines for the transport part of council budget. Of course, without the fines, that money would have to come from council tax...Total stupidity... The roads are public property yet councils are allowed to ransom us for driving on them. Go figure.
