Anyone been fined for using a bus lane?
Reason why I asked I never use them but last week I took a gamble and got in one early before it ran out to turn left at a mini roundabout. Today I opened my mail and had 3 pics of my van included with a fixed penalty notice of £60. Oops! that will teach me to be a naughty boy
What does peeve me though the local council shut down a park & ride years ago further up the road because they could not afford to keep it going. May I add no other bus lanes are in and around that area apart from that stretch of road. So that short bit of bus lane is no longer required but they sure as hell kept the camera working as generates them loads of dosh.
