You need to read up on what DYL really mean before posting advice, because you are wrong.0 -
Have you now read what Double Yellow Lines mean?

@OP - did you fail to see the two words, in huge lettering, directly in front of your vehicle? You may need to consider how to explain this to a Judge should it get to a county court claim. Hopefully the PPC won't go that far.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

Yep, for up to three hours, plus several other perfectly lawful exempt activities that allow several minutes (as long as there's no loading restriction kerb blips, as you say).
The description that poster gave was for clearways! Nothing like DYL.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
