Zig Zags at pedestrian crossings
Discussion
What is the definition of stop in the following bit of the highway code?
You MUST NOT stop or park on
the carriageway or the hard shoulder of a motorway except in an emergency (see Rule 270)
a pedestrian crossing, including the area marked by the zig-zag lines (see Rule 191)
I don't have a current Highway Code handy but there is a chance this might have been updated to You MUST NOT park on a crossing or in the area covered by the zig-zag lines.
There is a bus stop near me that is basically on a pedestrian crossing and I was wondering if the buses were allowed to stop, and also if cars are allowed to overtake the stopped bus.
