    Have you got a link for that? (Not that i doubt you I just like to have ammunition to back up arguments)

    I know it off by heart from work I did but I suspect it is in the roads Acts. This link clicky has it stated near the restrictions bit. It is English and whilst there are minor differences that is largely valid in Scotland.

    Annoyingly, this is true. The yellow zig-zags outside our (secondary)school don't have a TRO - result is chaos :mad: at going home time. Does anyone know how to get a TRO put in place?
    Try putting in a request to the highways department of your council. If you can get the school to make a request it will add weight to yours.

    Of course even if a valid TRO exists getting it enforced may still be a problem.
  • Thanks all for your input. I am thinking with a clear head now and do feel that it was a pretty daft thing to do. Although there were no kids around at that time and no traffic whatsoever, but that isnt and should not be a defence.

    I hold my hands up and will pay up when I get paid.

    I hope you don't get paid at the end of the month. LOL.You might be a bit late.
    I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.
