Strange - I assume that's a garage forecourt? So why does it have a yellow cross-hatched box - used, IME, to protect difficult junctions?
Kim, you are very bad!
Double yellow lines actually cover this. Setting down and picking up are forbidden, but (un)loading is permitted unless specifically forbidden (usually using the lines on the kerb). Waiting is permitted. Not sure about phone calls, then you should be parked, so from your list on a normal DYL, 1 and 2 are legal 3,4 and 5 are forbidden.
238You MUST NOT wait or park on yellow lines during the times of operation shown on nearby time plates (or zone entry signs if in a Controlled Parking Zone) – see 'Information signs' and 'Road markings'. Double yellow lines indicate a prohibition of waiting at any time even if there are no upright signs. You MUST NOT wait or park, or stop to set down and pick up passengers, on school entrance markings (see 'Road markings') when upright signs indicate a prohibition of stopping.
Mostly, they are going to the corner shop for a pack of fags, a bag of crisps and a lottery ticket.
This was in a completely full Co-op car park this morning. If they needed the extra room why not just park in the right hand bay?
Is this board googleable? If it is, I'd like to say blue Peugeot M222 MSC is parked by a fud.
Oh yeah. I'm a div. It's still parked by a fud though.
ETA: I know this is very London-centric, so, for those provincials yet to experience the glory of Boris Johnson's wonderful Cycling Superhighways, that's it. Yes, that crappy blue paint is it.
Worrabout the blue square with CS7 painted on it in the middle of the 'normal' lane, what's the significance of that? Just to indicate a route as opposed to a lane - or to alert drivers that here be bikes in the road cos the cycle lane is upparked?
It's to alert cyclists that some areas of the carriageway may be covered with an extra-slippery surface.
