PCN Bus Lane Question - any help appreciated!

Hi
I have recently received a PCN from my local authority for driving in a bus lane. Having checked the camera footage, I can see that the car (still unsure whether it my wife or I who were driving!) did enter the bus lane but the image clearly shows that the vehicle is half way in the bus lane and half way on the road i.e. the line separating the lanes is in the middle of my car.
Does anyone know what are the exact rules around entering a bus lane and when this becomes an offence? I'm sure there are situations when a car might deviate into a business lane i.e. driving around a stationary vehicle so surely they can't fine everyone for doing this?
Thanks in advance!
