Stopping is not parking - 2 different things. Double yellow lines show Parking restrictions, not stopping restrictions.

Where I live you can't get any points on your license if you stop on double-yellow lines unless there is a traffic warden there and there is no one in your car. If you're in your car and you'll only be parking for a short while then only stupid jobsworth traffic wardens might fine you or something.

I understand that you may stop for a short while to board and alight passengers or load or unload. I can't remember if it was either 2 or 5 minutes (one or the other), and you must not obstruct the flow of traffic in the street - a thing I see frequently down our high streets outside Mackydees and Woollies - usually chavs picking up their daily intake of burgers and DVDs. It depends largely on the person (traffic warden or policeman) though, and I have found that they 'usually' ask politely, once, for you to move. If you lip them, they give you a ticket for sure. I know I would if I was one.

No, parking offences incur a fine but not penalty points on your licence

you can get a FPN fxed penalty notice (ticket) but it is non endorsable... so it is a fixed 30.00 fine but no points on your or her licence... However... the fpn has a requirement to produce valid mot tax and insurance for that vehicle... such that if she is asked to produce those within 7 days and the insurance or her entitlement to drive isn't valid then she could get points for that as an un related offence.

You may stop to pick up and set down passengers on yellow lines if it is safe to do so, so long as you are not on a clearway. Parking on yellow lines will get you a fine, but no points.
