🚦 **Caught in the Yellow Box!** 🚦
Cardiff drivers, watch out! Over 3,000 motorists have been slapped with fines since April for stopping in a notorious yellow box junction at Bute Terrace. Cardiff Council has raked in nearly £100,000, enforcing this rule to keep bus routes flowing smoothly.
The infamous yellow box, right by the Utilita Arena, caught over 600 drivers napping in May and June alone! The story went viral when @yellowboxguru shared a TikTok video highlighting the problem, gathering over 300,000 views. The traffic expert, who guides his 60,000 followers through traffic laws and appeals, claimed the yellow box was double the necessary size and extended too far.
Cardiff Council countered this by stating the junction follows all legal guidelines, ensuring buses can make the crucial turn out of Churchill Way without a hitch. Offending drivers face fines of £50 or £70, slashed in half if paid promptly within two weeks.
Whether or not you agree with the placement, this junction’s reputation has surged beyond the streets and onto our screens. Drive carefully and stay informed, Cardiff! 🚌🚗 #CardiffTraffic #YellowBoxDebate #DriveSafe
