The Council - Somerset Parking - basically replied that as Avis has paid the fines "case closed".
The Avis hire car contract states when they receive the fines, they pay them and forward the account on to the driver/hirer. This then let's them off the hook.
So it's up to me then to challenge the fine....
I only jumped on site here to assist others - in particular the others already booked.
I agree with the comments about the Holiday Inn staff and their placing a sign at the exit saying no left turn.
The Council could also place a second sign facing the motorists stating "no left turn bus lane"
Hell this would impact on Council income stream..
