About this camera
Enfield Council lists a CCTV camera on Donkey Lane at its junction with Carterhatch Road, enforcing a banned turn restriction. A PCN from it alleges making a banned turn. The council gives 4 July 2012 as the date PCNs started being issued here. The council's list does not give the hours, so check the times on the signs and in the footage. Check that the banned-turn sign was visible on the approach and whether any exemption plate applied. Enfield lets you view the CCTV images online with your PCN number and registration before you decide. Appeals go to London Tribunals.
First-time warning
London councils are not expected to send first-time warnings for this kind of contravention.
Common grounds at a banned turn camera
- Was the banned-turn sign at the junction and visible on approach?
- Check any exemption plate and its hours.
- Outside London: first time at a camera in its first 6 months should get a warning.
Camera PCNs must normally be served within 28 days of the date. You can ask the council to let you view the recording, or send stills, free of charge.
Paying within 14 days gets the 50% discount. Challenging first does not stop you paying later, but the discount may not be offered again once it expires, so note the date.
