Our Mission
The A20 Justice Alliance is a united group committed to challenging the unjust prosecutions related to the temporary 40mph speed limit on the A20 Sidcup By-pass, and to seeking legal recourse for those who have been impacted by it.
Through group action, we will hold Transport for London and the Metropolitan Police accountable for the systemic failures surrounding this enforcement.

Engage with MPs, journalists, and media outlets to spotlight the injustice faced by drivers, rally public support, and build momentum for our cause.
Fight for Legal Precedent
Pursue appeals and judicial reviews to secure a victory that sets a powerful legal precedent, paving the way for broader group action and justice.
Champion Group Action and Reform
Lead the fight for collective recourse and financial redress while advocating for changes to traffic sign regulations to prevent future injustices.
The Issue
Drivers unaware and confused
The TFL and the Met introduced a temporary 40mph speed limit enforcement on the A20 GLA Road Sidcup By-pass in Southeast London. The limit was introduced without adequate signage or clear communication, leaving countless drivers unaware of the change.
Unjust Prosecution
Many have faced fines, points on their licenses, driving bans and even court cases for unknowingly exceeding the temporary limit. Despite significant evidence pointing to systemic failings in how this enforcement was handled, drivers continue to be prosecuted with little recourse or support.
Miscarriage of Justice
Poor signage, lack of transparency, and inconsistent enforcement have left many feeling unfairly penalised. Worse still, attempts to defend these cases have been met with hostile magistrates and disproportionate threats of fines, leaving thousands feeling powerless.
