Thankyou very much. sorry can i query something. i was picking
up my child from school today, i pulled in opposite the entrance
to the school to adjust my mirrors as i couldnt see, its double
yellows. and this lady screamed, and i mean screamed at me, she
threatened me, took photos, and said i didnt know the highway
code. for a start i wasnt parking there, it was horrendous
weather and i couldnt see properly, but regardless, can someone
tell me the rules. its opposite the entrance, not on the same
side as the entrance , so i actually thought i could park there.
i just want to know for reference.

[member=584]nicnncha[/member] please keep separate topics in
seperate threads, I've split this one out for you.
Was "this lady" a civil enforcement officer or just some random
lady?

Double yellow lines mean "No waiting" at any time, so the fact
you weren't "parked" is irrelevant.
You shouldn't need us to tell you the rules, that's what the
Highway Code is for.

666 that is not true , I have a disability badge, so you can
park on double
Yellow lines. I just would like to know the rules please. It was
just a random parent. The point is I wasn’t parking, we have had
horrendous storm here, the school is busy. I couldn’t see
properly so I pulled in to adjust my mirror and as I was about
to take off she started screaming at me, I was literally seconds
adjusting my mirror. She really upset me, and it wasn’t called
for.
But my partner pointed out that other cars with disabled badges
have parked there. So I don’t know the rules

If it was just a random member of the public, forget about it as
nothing will come of it.

I do know the rules, that you can park on yellow lines, yes i
said that. What i wanted to check is can you park on double
yellows, opposite a school entrance when there are no signs to
say you can't, it isnt obstructing anything, there are not
zigzag lines, no pedestrian crossing, nothing on the curb. I
cannot see a clear answer to this, what the actual highway code
states. Ive never parked there myself, nor was intending to,
but Ive been to the school today, and 4 cars parked on this
section with disabled badges. This lady told me i could not,
and i would like to know what the correct information is.

Drove all the way to school where I stopped on double yellows to
adjust my rear view mirror ?
No matter, if the only restriction is the double yellows then a
BB holder can park on them, with BB and time clock displayed at
correct time...for up to 3 hours.
If some nutter wants to rant about it, they ought to read the
highway code.
Likely to be a resident who is fed up with the school run and
people parking wherever... or another parent who jumped about
the DYLs, difficult to tell with people these days, they get all
excited about anything.... and then tell all about it on
Facebook.
