I would say its cock up when no standing signs were replaced with no stopping or no parking.

Certainly cleared things up in this instance. They have just gone nuts with the yellow paint up here instead.

If you stop you get booked. If you don't stop you get booked?Goverment cash grabbing I reckon...I can see the funny side, but would you change what you normally do anyway. The 'no stopping' signage is in place to stop ppl from parking and obscuring your vision at the intersection. A disobey 'no stopping' is more serious then a disobey 'no standing', and as mentioned no standing signs are being removed and replaced with no stopping.There is an exemption to stopping at a 'no stopping' sign, being car broken down and medical emergency or reciving treatment of an urgent and necessary nature.The STOP sign, your screwed unless you stop at or near the intersection but before the STOP sign/line.. Also the old 3 sec stop rule was repealed years ago, so please stop doing it. It just p!isses everyone behind you off.I.B.

What is the purpose of them? Revenue raising?Give way would be safe and acceptable in all but a few cases surely.
