Can I appeal a fine for entering a restricted route

bippetyboo

There is a morning restriction to cars for a road that comes off a roundabout near me in South London. I only noticed the signage late after coming off the (small) roundabout and felt it would be dangerous to try and stop so I immediately did a U turn after I had entered. The photo obviously shows me entering but if the video were a few frames on it would show me immediately leaving by turning around in the road a few metres later. Could I appeal on the grounds that it would be unsafe to try and reverse the car back into the roundabout and that it is obvious that I cam out of the restricted road immediately?

Thanks Nigel

You need to post on the FTLA (Free traffic legal advice) site.

Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on)

Make sure you read the "READ THIS FIRST" sticky

As above, go the FTLA website but your current grounds for appeal will likely be a non starter unless you are claiming in fact you did not enter the restricted zone.

Even less chance of a defence if there was advance warning of the restriction (which would seem likely for one directly off a roundabout).

You can appeal whatever you like. Whether the decision goes your way is another question.

But you did enter.

What would be gour grounds for appeal?
