    Penalty for Driving in a Pedestrian Area

    Does any one know what the penalties are for driving in a Pedestrian area with signs similar to this?



    The traffic was a nightmare yesterday so i took a short cut and instead of turning left where I was supposed to (done this 100 times! just not thinking) I went straight ahead and found myself in this pedestrian area - it is an acutal road but only residents of the flats nearby and loading vehicles are allowed in - by the time I had realised, I was in the zone so carried on going. Apparently there are cameras so i am just waiting for my ticket?

    Is it a fine and points? and how much..??

    Soooo annoyed with myself for not paying bloomin attention. This morning I took the same short cut but remembered to take the LEFT!

    You'll not get fined! It says "except for access" meaning you could have been looking for a friends house, forgot the address and turned round, and left!

    It should be fine!

        You'll be fine! Stop stressing..... If not then we'll appeal it, usually these signs are illegal anyway, well over 70% of signs are - thus we can usually fight and get the ticket revoked

          As for the knob, ask if he's never made a mistake and why he's such a knob

                    I'm sure you'd have heard by now, too.

                    I used to drive a short-cut in Kingston to avoid the traffic and get to a car park. It was marked "Bus's and taxi's only" - so I'd drive through shouting "I'm a bus, I'm a bus".

                    I used to get funny looks, but it kept me amused - I never got "done" for it, and I did it hundreds of times!

                    Hubby did it ONCE in Bath, and got a fine and penalty points - ha ha!!!! It's cos he didn't shout "I'm a bus"
                    If happy little bluebirds fly, beyond the rainbow, why, oh why can't I?
