Travelers by rail. Using a local road to park in without any yellow lines.without them knowing. Had their vehicle removed while yellow lines were being installed.Said vehicles were then replaced on the yellow lines..Came back to find parking tickets on them..on some several..I heard this on local radio..But missed the details.I cannot see this being Legal?

Seem to recall reading this myself but cannot trace cutting.

So, technically, if the Order has been made at the moment the signs are down then it is in being and offence committed.

Would however look at in detail the power to remove the vehicle and consider tampering. Suspect there are plenty of Regs to bend to achieve.

Welcome to the Little Britain mode of policing (note lack of capital letter). I'd like to see the Order. Is is it a public road or is it owned by Notwork Rail ?

I hate to think of the consequences of this on an automatic left in Park.

The report said that Mr Tether's car was pushed, so I assumed that this meant forward or backward, albeit to the end of it's tether.
