I?ve just watched a car scrape the back of my van as I was parked in a bay on lordship Lane opposite Chener Books/TruePenny's estate agents.

I was in such shock I was too slow to note down the license plate, and a van then pulled up after it, blocking my view.


Does anyone know if there is CCTV that might capture that stretch of the road/the parking bays?


Thank you.

According to the council (and the police) there is no CCTV on Lordship lane. TFL have cameras that only record real time for traffic flow so will not have any recording. You could try local businesses with their CCTv - tho this is usually restricted to outside pavement only so unlikely to project as far as the kerb/road. Totally sympathise.
I think Ulez is quite different to any other recording - there is no manpower to check for infringement even if you have the time and date. So frustrating- we had a personal car crime and i suggested to the police that I would personally sit thru any cctv to save them the trouble (I am dbs checked) and they told me there is no recording available.

That can't be the case, surely, otherwise if you are already parked within the ULEZ zone you won't be picked up and charged unless you drive out of it.

Interesting. I guess all will be revealed next week!

They use the same cameras for different types of enforcement as I understand it. So there aren't specific 'ULEZ' cameras, just TFL ones. A map of all the locations is here: https://londonist.com/london/transport/an-interactive-live-traffic-map-of-london


It looks like we need more in the area if they're going to effectively cut down on short, local journey's in the most polluting vehicles.

Yep, it?s a positive move imo

Build a guided bus system, or the new kind of tramlines that are "glued" down and so less expensive, or trolleybuses to fill the gap provided by the rolling back on teh Bakerloo extension. Money would be saved but there wouldn't be any investment in housing, etc. that often goes alongside Tube expansion.

Hi KH, What rotten bad luck.

I presume you're asking if ay of the businesses around that section of Lordship Lane have CCTV cameras - I think you'd need to visit the businesses and ask them.

Thanks James. I had messaged a couple of shops directly opposite, but they who weren't able to help. But good idea to walk down the lane and see who else might have a camera that may have captured the road.


Thanks.

    • Hello,  I feel as though our apartment is damp. I would like to borrow a dehumidifier to ascertain whether it is or not. Does anyone have a dehumidifier that I could borrow for a week?  thank you,    Brigid
    • Post much better this Xmas.  Sue posted about whether they send Xmas cards; how good the post is,  is relevant.  Think I will continue to stay off Instagram!
    • These have reduced over the years, are "perfect" lives Round Robins being replaced by "perfect" lives Instagram posts where we see all year round how people portray their perfect lives ?    The point of this thread is that for the last few years, due to issues at the mail offices, we had delays to post over Christmas. Not really been flagged as an issue this year but I am still betting on the odd card, posted well before Christmas, arriving late January. 
    • Two subjects here.  Xmas cards,  We receive and send less of them.  One reason is that the cost of postage - although interestingly not as much as I thought say compared to 10 years ago (a little more than inflation).  Fun fact when inflation was double digits in the 70s cost of postage almost doubled in one year.  Postage is not a good indication of general inflation fluctuating a fair bit.  The huge rise in international postage that for a 20g Christmas card to Europe (no longer a 20g price, now have to do up to 100g), or a cheapskate 10g card to the 'States (again have to go up to the 100g price) , both around a quid in 2015, and now has more than doubled in real terms.  Cards exchanged with the US last year were arriving in the New Year.  Funnily enough they came much quicker this year.  So all my cards abroad were by email this year. The other reason we send less cards is that it was once a good opportunity to keep in touch with news.  I still personalise many cards with a news and for some a letter, and am a bit grumpy when I get a single line back,  Or worse a round robin about their perfect lives and families.  But most of us now communicate I expect primarily by WhatApp, email, FB etc.  No need for lightweight airmail envelope and paper in one.    The other subject is the mail as a whole. Privitisation appears to have done it no favours and the opening up of competition with restrictions on competing for parcel post with the new entrants.  Clearly unless you do special delivery there is a good chance that first class will not be delivered in a day as was expected in the past.   Should we have kept a public owned service subsidised by the tax payer?  You could also question how much lead on innovation was lost following the hiving off of the national telecommunications and mail network.
