Hi guys, Just curious as to the legality of the road markings on a nearby zebra crossing - not sure of the exact length of the zig zags either side but lets says they're 8 metres in either direction... ..except one of the four sections of zigzags is several metres shorter in order to accomodate a bus stop (ie. one side of the road has zigzags one side of the crossing running to around 2 to 3 metres, the other three run to around 8 metres). I thought the idea of these markings was to limit the risk to pedestrians and yet people can cross behind a bus whos rear end is only a metre or two from the crossing (assuming another bus isn't behind it which is straddling the crossing (as I have witnessed on more than one occasion!)). Yet if I park opposite the bus stop I'll be on zigzags and so risking a fine and points. Techincally perhaps not double standards but does seem to smack of it, can anyone offer some clarity please

pcn on zig-zags code 99j
ericsbrother posted a topic in Local Authority Parking and Traffic Offences
My daughter received a pcn through the post as it was reported that she had been observed by a camera car stopped on a zig zag outside a school, penalty code 99j. She hadnt stopped as such, she was giving way to an oncoming vehicle as there wasnt room to pass due to cars parked further up the road. Common sense would dictate that no offence has been committed otherwise every time you stop to let people across a zebra crossing you would fall foul of this. Other than stating the obvious any advice on what to write in the appeal.
