Parking a trailer on double yellow lines


Recommended Posts

Well there is a requirement for all vehicles to have lights on overnight unless they are in a 30mph street light area so they wont be far out. Its just like siting a skip if you think about it.

 

Agreed but we were talking specifically about tree work, most of that is domestic and by its very nature would be in a 30 zone

Only just found this thread, but the following may/may not be of interest:

 

I had need to park my old 110 and a 20' Ifor trailer overnight in central London about 6 yrs ago. Amazingly I managed to find two legit spaces on a side street off the Edgware Road, and even managed to reverse the trailer in to the space without hitting any other vehicles or re-sarranging any of the street furniture. Left trailer overnight locked to the 110, but put a ticket in the windscreen of the LR for both the LR and another for the trailer. I also placed a note on the trailer explaining what I had done.

 

Came out in the morning to find a parking ticket stuck to the trailer. Took legal advise as I was severely pi55ed off, and was told to pay up as they (ie solicitor) felt that I had failed to display a valid ticket on the trailer itself.

 

Other than confirming that Westminster City Council are a bunch of money grabbing sh*ts, it also confirmed that the trailer is regarded as a separate vehicle in its own right.

 

 

That's some brave taking a 110 & trailer across the Tamar! Reverse parking it roadside too, that's got to be lottery odds on finding a double spot! 👍🏻
