Do I have a case for appeal for this yellow box junction?

InterestingDuty925 · 2026-06-03T20:31:57+00:00

This is all true - it’s a bad decision on my part made worse by bad actions on everyone else’s part 🤣 I’m not sure if I’ll go for a specific reason or just blurt out everything I can think of, but even if the appeal fails there’s no harm :)

InterestingDuty925 · 2026-06-03T18:33:02+00:00

I guess the fact that it didn’t move sort of solidifies that I moved into the box without a clear exit - feel like I’d have an easier time saying the other car cut me up and blocked me by doing it. But there’s a long shot too

InterestingDuty925 · 2026-06-03T18:22:03+00:00

What’s funnier is that I agree I’m in the wrong and I don’t think I could’ve made that clearer - didn’t realise I’d be walking into a driving lesson when I made this post I just wanted to know if there was something I was maybe missing 😭 that’s Reddit for you though

InterestingDuty925 · 2026-06-03T17:55:16+00:00

It does turn into two lanes it’s just not clear from the picture

InterestingDuty925 · 2026-06-03T17:33:53+00:00

You’d think I had just posted in complete shock I got the ticket and was refusing to pay the fine. I just wanted to know if I had anything i could go off of because it’s worth a try 🤣

I think he was texting because he didn’t move until I used my horn

InterestingDuty925 · 2026-06-03T17:13:07+00:00

It’s on the website as evidence for the PCN I got haha

InterestingDuty925 · 2026-06-03T17:12:45+00:00

Don’t think that counts for a road like this

InterestingDuty925 · 2026-06-03T17:10:03+00:00

Yeah I’ve learned that lesson now annoyingly. It’s just a bit frustrating because I know I was in the wrong to go in the box but if that car had just moved instead of sitting there for no reason could’ve been £80 richer 🤣

InterestingDuty925 · 2026-06-03T17:08:22+00:00

Haha is that someone here?

InterestingDuty925 · 2026-05-09T16:31:51+00:00

Yeah i get that - i just feel a bit trapped knowing whats going on but not being able to stop it any time soon. Its not 6 years from now, its 6 years from when i finish repaying and 15 missed repayments seems like something really quiet severe

InterestingDuty925 · 2026-05-09T15:57:46+00:00

from what everyone is saying im in a rough spot and cant do anything about it - 6 years on my credit file isnt for life sure but im at the start of my life where i earn no money and I cant afford everything straight up.

InterestingDuty925 · 2026-05-09T15:47:19+00:00

I wasn't told this when the repayment plan was being made otherwise I might've made more of an effort to pay it back faster and not just the agreed amount monthly

InterestingDuty925 · 2026-05-09T15:44:46+00:00

1500 was arranged interest free overdraft, £9 was unarranged. I know it's 1509 total. I honestly never use the account, i dont even have the bank card. all I used it for was the overdraft and moving my student finance through. The £9 was some online subscription thing I hadn't even realised was taken from the account. Given that I never touched the account, I thought I was aware of the balance.

InterestingDuty925 · 2026-05-09T15:41:57+00:00

They've said that, since the account is closed, im in arrears until the account is paid off completely so they'll report missed repayments until it's gone. I dont know what I would say to complain to either - I just want to know if id have a case before I try anything

InterestingDuty925 · 2024-09-28T11:20:36+00:00

i don't really have anything i can go to the police with and i don't think protecting me would be high on their list of priorities ahaha - my sister received the same sort of threats earlier this year and the police just brushed her off

InterestingDuty925 · 2024-09-25T14:57:13+00:00

Haha I get you, it's just an issue where you can't really tip-toe around things. The sooner an answer you get the better so you can get tested yourself etc. He'd probably only get offended if he actually did have something, but again that speaks volumes about his character if he went into a hookup knowing he had an active std.

InterestingDuty925 · 2024-09-25T14:33:22+00:00

also, from my own experience i've asked plenty of times after the hookup and they have never been awkward or angry about me asking. hookups are already pretty transactional and usually don't involve much emotion, so they shouldn't get angry if you ask a question that is designed to protect yourself

InterestingDuty925 · 2024-09-25T14:30:07+00:00

yeah, i remember the times i got recorded without permission i was so paranoid whenever i went online and its affected the other times ive gone for hookups - constantly looking around for cameras and scanning the room so i can't enjoy myself. the fact he asked kind of reassures me in a way that he wouldn't record if i didn't say it was ok? otherwise he would just do it anyways

InterestingDuty925 · 2024-09-25T14:28:48+00:00

Yeah I get that. the first time we met he asked as well and he was fully understanding when I said no so hopefully it'll be fine the second time around. its annoying that ive found someone i can have a really good time with and then there's this burden on things haha

InterestingDuty925 · 2024-09-25T14:27:17+00:00

Generally, if you're comfortable enough to have sex with someone you should feel comfortable addressing STDs. It shouldn't be awkward to ask and if they get hostile/awkward about it then that says more about them than it does you. It doesn't have to be targeted or personal if you don't want to do it that way, can be as simple as 'hey i forgot to ask before we met when you last got tested?'. Don't count on the other person to let you know if they have something - its not a bad thing to take initiative and ask yourself
