if someone threatened to ticket them they could claim they are waiting
for a customer and that they are allowed ?20 minutes for that.-

In Pancras Road - the road that runs between Kings Cross
and St. Pancras stations - the waiting time allowed is three
minutes, if I recall correctly.-

I have never heard of any such a restriction, but will be there tomorrow

and will check.

It's some time since I've been there, but on the St. Pancras
Station side, there were small signs attached to lamp posts
saying that three minutes was the maximum waiting period. My
guess is they're still there.


I just looked on Google Streetview.

The signs limit parking to 2 minutes, with no return within 40 minutes. The
restriction is in force 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Vehicles also
cannot be left unattended.
