Title: Fickin Bradford Council.
Post by: STEMO on 18 January 2018, 15:00:20
Just got a fine through the post for driving in a bus lane when I took my lad over to Bradford. Time of offence: 21:56. Bang out of order, the roads were deserted at that time and you’d be lucky to get one bus every half hour. As Donald would say, it’s a shithole, but I suppose the local councillors still need their perks paying for.

We're abouts, the bus car share lane on the M606 has been suspended, so check.

You could always appeal but I wouldn't use that as your defence. :)

Just sheer greed and no operational/safety reasons whatsoever.
Worth an email to your MP?

More serious offence surely? Minimum of being tasered in private parts or 12 points.

I was in Scarbough last Sunday. Parked on Queen Street. 11.56  Paid for the max of one hour. £2. Traffic warden appeared at 11.58, again at 12.14 and finally just as we were leaving at 12.47. Must be one traffic warden for every street.

Do you think they’ll do that if I keep transgressing?  :-*

Where I'm not driving at the moment I don't miss the stress or hassle whatsoever, but I do miss the freedom to easily go anywhere at anytime. ???
