I could not believe it when I read your article about cars parked outside the Hawkwell House Hotel at Iffley, Oxford (Oxford Mail, March 3).
How could the police possibly say they were not breaking the law?
The Highway Code says, as you quoted, that it is illegal to stop on a road with double white lines.
If it had been anyone else parked there, they would have soon been ticketed or towed away.
It appears yet again that it is one law for the 'law enforcers' and one law for everyone else.
As to the hotel saying the car park was full, this hardly justifies breaking the law, especially by the police.
