Vehicle contravening bus lane regulations.
Northern Ireland uses code 34 for this contravention.
The code appears on a Penalty Charge Notice so that the particular parking or bus-lane contravention being alleged can be identified.
The standard Northern Ireland PCN charge is £90.
A 50% discount reduces this to £45 when payment is made within the first 14 days.
If the case progresses to a Charge Certificate, the amount increases to £135.
Check that the registration, location, date, time and contravention code shown on the notice match the circumstances.
If you believe the PCN was issued incorrectly, Northern Ireland has an official challenge and representation process.
Code 34 is used for vehicles parked in a bus lane during its operational hours. The specific legislation and road signs determine the hours during which the bus lane restriction operates.
