Illegal parking

[Brixton]

Not illegal in my optinion. For a very simple reason: The rules say nothing about parking there.

Quote: Illegal parking (40€ - 80€)
It’s illegal to park:
- On the road, including curbs (except side roads)
- On grass
- On cross-hatched areas (except pits)

Only in fine list is some specific rule for parking. In Rules, COP Guide etc. are only talked about how to fine illegal parking.

On the road means for me: On the driving lanes. The area there is not a normal driving lane. If it is, then its a two lane road. So there is no rule where it is forbitten.

That it is a very busy road is not a argument for illegal parking. I know very busy streets in Berlin, Hamburg, Dresden, Leipzig, Dublin, London etc. where are parking space on the side of the road. You have to be carefull if you turn out there, but its not forbitten.
