Stopping on Ped. Crossing zig-zags (PC30)
Discussion
JA
Schedule 6 (Road Markings) TS & Gen Directions 2002 gives the zig zags the sign number 1001.3 and Reg 27/28 tells you what and what you cannot do in relation to the sign.
Reg 10 also states that sign 1001.3 is a sign that Section 36 Road Traffic Act 88 applies.
Said section 36 creates the offence of failing to conform to Traffic sign.
Schedule 1 Road Traffic Offenders Act 88 outlines that a S36 RTA 88 offence requires NOIP and Schedule 2
the punishment for the infringement.
Hows that - all before my tea and toast?

I got caught on that one.
Was sat in car on cup final day, engine running, waiting for wife at cash till. Place was deserted when out of the blue a police car comes round the corner. Pulls up and books me for having the bumper over the end of the zig zag lines.

Like we always say, let's have more BiBs and less cameras because they've got discretion and a sense of proportion..... Are you sure it was just your bumper?

blueyes said:The BiB would be able to see if you were waiting for someone to cross the road, that's the advantage over a camera. He could also have booked him for leaving the engine running.
Hang on a minute! If the car was running how the hell could he book you? If he could do it then what's to stop him doing it when you're waiting for someone to cross the road?
Somebody explain this please.
It would be interesting to know where the police car parked?? Was there plenty of free parking space OUTSIDE the zig zags?

I was refering to joe_c. He was in the car with the engine running. If the car was running how could it be classified as stopped? DVD please explain!
DVD - but is it "controlled" with regard to the leading contact point (i.e. the tyre) or to any overhang (e.g. bumper)?

Also, at both the quantum level and with respect to celestial mechanics under the Euclidian system, the vehicle was moving. However, from this latter perspective it was exceeding the NSL by a considerable amount.

I guess that if the car actually crept forward (at >0<1 mph) it would not be stopped and no offence would be committed - Streaky
