Default Drivers STILL using Liverpool pop-up lane as a 'car park' afterdouble yellows installed

Now they're really breaking the law.
QUOTE:
Thanks to complaints on social media and a hearty dose of pressure from the media, Liverpool Council council promised to act when it was found that a pop-up cycle lane in the city centre was effectively being used as a 'pop-up car park', forcing cyclists back out of the lane.

The road that made headlines with up to 20 cars parked in a 0.2 mile stretch has now had double yellow lines painted on it; however as photographed by Philip Marshall, there are still drivers determined to park in the cycle lane. When they were first made aware of the illegal parking, Liverpool Council said: "Enforcement options are being looked at but it is hoped behaviours will change as these new pop-up lanes bed in. However, if car parking persists action will be taken.”

It appears not everyone's behaviour is changing just yet...

Here is one such selfish parker.

To himself.

Probably.

Mind you, I could be wrong.
