Transport for LondonGround four
The Regulations define this ground as:
"That the vehicle had been used or kept or permitted to be used or kept on a road by a person who was in control of the vehicle without the consent of the registered keeper."
It is the registered keeper, or if a hire company has transferred liability, the nominated hirer, who is liable for the PCN. You cannot rely on the fact that you may not have been the driver, or that someone borrowed the car.
If your vehicle was stolen or you had not permitted the use of the vehicle at the time of the contravention, then please make a Representation. However, you will need to provide evidence to support your claim.
- E.g. if stolen please provide details of the crime reference number, and the name of the police station to which the crime was reported, the date the vehicle was stolen and if applicable, the date of recovery
Please note
Transport for London will always consider the use of our discretion if you supply details and evidence of any mitigating circumstances.
