Parking fine while picking up children

Your continued and incorrect use of "of" instead of "have or " 've".

"Of" refers to a relationship, Robin of Sherwood, Seven of Nine, Hair of the dog, etc.

You left out: Full of ...it.

It's not "you of made assumptions", it is "you have made assumptions"

Maybe I'll draw a (yellow) line under this one before I get into trouble.

Why can't your child walk to school?

Do what they do in Germany etc. Get a few parents together, tie the little darlings to a long rope, supervise the head and the rear of the line.
Get a few parents together and STOP treating kids as glass. If that is beyond your capabilities park some way away and walk to the school. :mad:
(By the way, I used to walk a mile to school, winter and summer.)

There is only one problem with doing that.
It probably wouldn't take long before the local council decided that the adults who were supervising the children would need to undergo a full CRB check before they were allowed to take charge of the kids, and if the system was to be run on a rostered basis, everyone on the list of potential supervisors would need to undergo the checking procedure.
