1. Please could you provide me with any evidence of this street parking sign which you have sought Secretary of State for Transport approval as they do not comply with Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions (TSRGD) regulations?
The “car only” bay restriction is not currently used in the authority area.
2. Please could you confirm that the legal definition for a motor car, in relation to on street parking signs, is taken from the Road Traffic 1988 / Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984?
Devon County Council’s traffic order does not include reference to any definition for a motor car.
3. If yes to 2. Can you confirm how a traffic warden would establish a vehicle meets the definition of a motor car? Eg. do they have access to a database detailing unladen weights.
Devon County Council does not hold this information.
