No you can pick up and set down passengers as you please as long as you don't cause an obstruction |

Stopping is not parking - 2 different things.
Double yellow lines show Parking restrictions, not stopping restrictions. |

Where I live you can't get any points on your license if you stop on double-yellow lines unless there is a traffic warden there and there is no one in your car.
If you're in your car and you'll only be parking for a short while then only stupid jobsworth traffic wardens might fine you or something. |

I understand that you may stop for a short while to board and alight passengers or load or unload. I can't remember if it was either 2 or 5 minutes (one or the other), and you must not obstruct the flow of traffic in the street - a thing I see frequently down our high streets outside Mackydees and Woollies - usually chavs picking up their daily intake of burgers and DVDs.
It depends largely on the person (traffic warden or policeman) though, and I have found that they 'usually' ask politely, once, for you to move. If you lip them, they give you a ticket for sure. I know I would if I was one. |

No, parking offences incur a fine but not penalty points on your licence |

you can get a FPN
fxed penalty notice
(ticket)
but it is non endorsable...
so it is a fixed 30.00 fine but no points on your or her licence...
However...
the fpn has a requirement to produce valid mot tax and insurance for that vehicle...
such that if she is asked to produce those within 7 days and the insurance or her entitlement to drive isn't valid then she could get points for that as an un related offence. |

You may stop to pick up and set down passengers on yellow lines if it is safe to do so, so long as you are not on a clearway.
Parking on yellow lines will get you a fine, but no points. |

You won't get points for parking on a double yellow line - but you do if you park on the zig-zag lines next to a pedestrian crossing - 3 points. |

Did you leave the car and a traffic warden came by? If you were in your car, they would just ask you to move.
If you returned to the car with a ticket stuck on the windscreen then no, you'll probably just get a fine. If you parked in a really stupid place which was causing a dangerous obstruction you might, but II find it unlikely.
Sorry you had to throw away £30! |
