I got pulled over by an unmarked police car on Thursday and was given a nice Fixed Penalty Notice by the kind policeman!
I had no idea what I had been pulled over for until he reminded me that instead of queuing behind approx 10 cars at the lights I had gained an advantage by proceeding in a northerly fashion in the lane reserved for turning right.
I had no idea that this was an offence and thought I was making use of both lanes so reducing congestion! I told the policeman this but it cut no ice and would not exercise discretion and give me a £30 ticket.
Not endorsable but be warned of trying to beat the queues like me!
