Hi chaps.

I am trying to find a list of police FPN codes.
The main reason is to see if there is a FPN code for being parked on a bus stop.

Tried google- no luck.
Help please.

The reason you're having difficulty is probably because it is decriminialised (DPE) in most of England and normally no longer dealt with by the police.*
Enforcement is undertaken by local authorities. The code for a bus stop contravention is 47.

 * The police could probably still ticket you for unnecssary obstruction if they were minded to though.
    The Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations 1986 Section 103.

FPN Codes are identified in Part 3 of the Road Traffic Offenders Act 1988 (RTOA). They are not 'police FPN codes' so your search term was probably incorrect.

Think this may help...

https://www.gov.uk/penalty-points-endorsements/end...

can't see anything specifically bus stop related, but "MS60 - Offences not covered by other codes (including offences relating to breach of requirements as to control of vehicle)" seems to be a catch-all.

No, it won't, because parking offences are non-endorsable.

I'm guessing that the bus stop had road markings. If so, it will be to one of the following: Diagram 1025.1/1025.3/1025.4
See pages 106 & 107 of the Traffic Signs Manual Chapter 5 - https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploa...

In which case, ignore my earlier post about C&U Section 103 because all of the above markings make it a bus stop clearway.
See page 168 of the Traffic Signs Manual Chapter 3 Appendix C - https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploa...

The relevant code for a FPN issued by the police for that offence is N099 - https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/12324/respo...
