Bus Lanes

(1/3) > >>

BigSi:
Who is allowed to use a bus lane? Had an argument with a Mercedes vito driver who was using the lane! Looked like a private hire vehicle?  :-k :-k :-k :-k :-k :-k

Mark_Solesbury:
I think that some of them are different to others, and its all about the sign thats on the road.

Taxi's can use some lanes i think....

kizz81:
certainly in mansfield and nottingham, you can get introuble with the police for using the bus lane when not allowed, it is open to all traffic at certain times of the day
bikes can use them i think

sleeplessparadise:
As Mark said it's all down to the road signage. Some bus lanes are permanent bus lanes and can only be used by buses others have time restrictions on for peak times and yet others are for buses and taxis so you really need to see the sign to say what is right.

gtomo2:
yea a taxi (eg black cab)can use them but not a private hire cab eg one you have to book, I know as y farther in law who was a private hire drive got done for using them in chester.
