A record £11 million in bus lane fines was raked in across Scotland last year even though traffic levels were drastically down during the second year of lockdown.
There were over 180,000 fines issued in Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen where enforcement cameras operate.
The number was up almost 30% on 2020. Figures show the number of bus lane fines issued last year in Glasgow alone was about 80,000.
Drivers may have been caught out returning to city centres after working from home for months, unaware cameras had been installed.
A further 54,000 fines were issued in Edinburgh, a 60% increase on the year before, with 49,000 fines issued in Aberdeen, more than double 2020.
A spokesman for Glasgow City Council said: “Bus gates, bus lanes and other bus priority measures help to improve journey times and make the bus a more attractive travel option in Glasgow.”
Brian Gregory, policy director at the Alliance of British Drivers said: “There has been a significant proliferation of bus lane cameras which seems to have been accompanied by a proliferation of ambiguity of signage at bus lanes.”
