Transport for LondonGround four
The vehicle was used or kept without my consent (eg stolen).
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 any Penalty Charge Notice. You cannot rely on the fact 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.
For example, if it was stolen you should provide details of the crime reference number, the name of the police station at which the crime was reported, the date the vehicle was stolen and, if applicable, the date it was recovered.
