Yellow Lines

Broken line - no waiting for less than the working day
Single line - no waiting for the working day (7 a.m. to 7 p.m.)


Much though I hate to correct a taxi driver, this is wrong and
misleading.

For instance, one high street not far from me has a single yellow line
with plates announcing no parking "Monday to Sunday, 8.00am to
midnight". Every evening and every Sunday parking wardens are out in
force issuing hundreds of tickets to shoppers who make incorrect
assumptions about "working days".


That is the sort of restriction that used to have double yellow lines and
confuse people the other way. We had some 8 am to 8 pm restrictions like
that at one time.
