Uncfortunately, it is a No Stopping contravention, and 10 seconds would be outside any de minimis considerations. I see there are double-red lines before the bus stop, so as Stamfordmans has spotted, you would have been whalloped wherever you stopped. Best to find a side street with some single or double-yellow lines as boarding/alighting passengers is OK on these.

Annoying as if you'd just stopped short of the bus stop the pick up would have been fine.* This is one where they should use discretion but probably won't.

*Actually I don't think you would be as this may well be on Redbridge's new red route.

Let me know if the link works. I saved the PCN on my one drive.

Thank you.

Hi. We need the VRM please. And the PCN. You can only stop at a  bus stop due to an emergency. But, they have to prove there is an upright sign - yellow.

Hi,

I received a PCN on Cranbrook Road where i stopped for less than 10 seconds to pick up nephew. Can I argue that it was for an extremely short time?

Thank you.
