DRIVERS will soon be fined for breaking the rules of the road at six 'high junctions in Manchester, it emerged.
Last year, the government approved plans to allow Manchester City Council to take on powers previously held by police in enforcing the rules of the road at seven junctions in the city.
The powers mean that the council can use Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras to penalise motorists who commit 'moving traffic offences.'
Those offences include ignoring yellow box markings, making a right or left turn when prohibited, or driving the wrong way down a one-way street. Until now, however, enforcement was only in effect at one junction.
