Yes, but parking on double yellow lines means keeping all four wheels upon the carriageway no?
No.Law enforcers are permitted to do things that are illegal for the rest of us which is fair enough.

I think we are on the same side really, onlong with Cliftonite.
Downloading a bunch of stuff from a memory card, I found these few...
FedEx delivery driver, so obviously exempt from all the normal rules of driving/parking. He'd already narrowly missed knocking me over as he roared out of an old folks home on an adjacent street (I'd been midway across the entrance, on the F-O-O-T-P-A-T-H at the time). He screeched to a halt and waved me across! Fk you, dumbass. I was already half way across when you woke up.
Then he turned up at another delivery, this time to a shop. Hazard lights on, so evidently that makes it OK to park ON the zig-zags for the crossing. And I wonder what those stripes on the kerb mean? You know, the ones in addition to the double yellow lines? Can't see the plate, though, so don't know.
Ah well. I guess we'll never know. Oh. Wait. He's driven another 100 yards up the road, and helpfully, this time, I can get the "No Loading At Any Time" plate in the shot now. Rules not apply to you, Mr Special-Needs?
Local KFC drive through (yes, I have a serious fast food habit ). The Oompah-Loompah in a pink T-shirt who got out of this did, bless her, make three attempts to get it into the bay, but all she achieved was going backwards and forwards a bit, because she wasn't turning the steering wheel enough, nor in the right direction. So she left it in two bays (the only two free bays) one of which happened to be the disabled bay for the 'restaurant'.
