Did I do Something Wrong?

[trentk69]

I was driving up Lordship Lane this morning, and as I came up to the Co Op, I saw there was some free space to park there, so I pulled over into the area, and parked my car in order to nip out and get some cash from the HSBC ATMs.

I noticed on the other side of the road there was a Southwark Council Parking spy vehicle with its periscope extended, and trained on my side of the road. I parked just before the HSBC bank, but I am now wondering if I have done something wrong, as there was an unusual amount of space there. This makes me think that everyone else knew not to park there?

Am I going to get an unpleasant surprise from the council in the next few days??

Are the bus lane restrictions in operation on a Saturday? If so, they continue until 10am - so you may have been unlucky. Not sure that they are though, so as long as you weren't parked on double yellows or anything you should be fine.

no probably not. they always hang out there. not sure why they are not doing something useful like making sure people don't park on the yellow zig zag lines outside schools for example

If you did the demand will come at just the wrong time in my experience, just when money is tight. We will be worrying even more if the CpZ comes about....

No restrictions on Saturday. They're probably after double-yellow parkers on corner by the cashpoints.
