Bye-laws

In searching out about Penalty Charge Notices I've mentioned bye-laws (that's how it's spelt in legislation even though I think it looks wrong). I don't like bye-laws and for a good reason which I'll put to you in the form of a test - try and find a list of bye-laws for your own district, go on I'll wait.

Did you succeed? I'm betting not. So consider that every district can have its own bye-laws and that thus, in theory, you should make yourself aware of them while in their district.

Consider how many different districts you might be passing through every day and that you have an obligation to discover any applicable bye-laws as "Ignorance is no excuse" and failure to comply is a criminal act and my dislike of them should be obvious.
