Driving instructor Annie Winterburn took to TikTok to break it all down. While we often know that yellow road lines mean no waiting and red lines signal a complete no-go for stopping, kerb markings are a whole different story.

πŸ” Here’s the scoop: Double vertical kerb lines aren’t about parking at all – they’re all about loading. If you’re making a delivery, these lines mean you should steer clear, as there’s a ban on loading and unloading. A single line? It means there are specific times when these restrictions apply.

Many drivers had no clue these rules were just for loading vehicles. One grateful commenter said, “I thought that was for car drivers… thanks for clarifying!” And another confessed, “Been driving 40 years, and I’m still learning!”

So next time you see these mystery lines, you’ll know exactly what they’re about. Keep your deliveries moving and stay informed! πŸššπŸ’¨
