    This comic either set in a parallel universe where the UK has adopted the dollar and drives on the right, or one where the US uses british road markings and police uniforms. :)

  2. Sean says:

    Those are some crazy looking road markings I must say. Clearly I’m not British.

  3. Trevory says:

    Sean: Basically, those lines say you can’t park there.

  4. danineteen says:

    Heh.

    We don’t have road markings like that here in Aus., but we do drive on the left side of the road AND use the $ for our currency :P

    If you’re going to do a bank robbery it makes sense to park temporarily nearest the curb. Incidentally, those double yellow lines mean no parking, but it is acceptable to alight or pick-up passengers temporarily and perform loading/unlocking if that’s the only suitable location without exception signs or loading limitation markings (double-white perpendicular dashes on curb stones). I love the 8% rate – that’s either an optimistic savings account or a rather poor mortgage repayment :)

  6. Sean says:

    I like the license plate no.

  7. MrGBH says:

    It could be some Americans that’ve come to Britain to rob a bank (Or they just thought it would be a fun thing to do on holiday).

  8. Knock over a British bank, but only take the American Dollars, leave the pounds and Euros behind?

    Never noticed that wiper blades (typically) are oriented differently for right-hand-drive….

  9. Nef says:

    We can’t see the money itself, but these are clearly imported bank-robber bags bought on sale in the American Bank Robbers Association Auction House. All self-respecting bank robbers buy from them.

  10. P says:

    Here in Canada, such lines would mean “not recommended to pass over these lines”.
    Still works, eh?

  11. Trisana says:

    eh, close enough to the yellow curb for this American.
