"GT" gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying:

Double red lines? What are they?

They signify "No Stopping" on London's designated "Red Routes".

Oh and whats wrong with the standard double yellow lines - they mean no
stopping too!

FFS... No, they don't.

Lets hope there aren't any traffic jams or traffic lights along those
routes
then - only taxis and blue badge holders would avoid prosecution!


And cyclists!


Red lights and jams aren't a hold up for them - they just undertake queues
and go through red lights.
