Article 14 spans the end of the second page the start of the third.


OK, that seems clear... apart from the fact that it refers to the road in question being in a 'Special parking area':
" ?special parking area? means a special parking area designated by an order made by the Secretary of State under section 76(1) of the Road Traffic Act 1991"

I took a look at what this constitutes and got confused (see http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts/acts1991/ukp...-pb3-l1g76 )

Does anyone know for sure?



Please contact any of the authorities mentioned in The Big Retort. Some have an online form which a homeowner should fill in authorising the issue of a penalty notice for anyone parking (other than the owner) across a driveway. It is enshrined in the 2003 Act, not the earlier 1991 law. I'm only amazed that it was not widely reported like the Congestion Charge etc.
