I've lived on a no through road. The main problem was that people wanted to get from A to B as quickly as possible, this is so is leaving on your trip but quickly is the operative word - residents on the other hand usually took a dim view of running over their neighbor's kids and tended to drive more carefully than commuters on a road which offers a number of hazards There were narrow passing places yet the reversing etiquette dumbfounded most commuters and it got pretty boring continually reversing 30 meters back down the road several times for commuters who sat cross-armed at the hint that they may have to reverse 2 meters on a road they shouldn't legally be using in the first place. I think it depends on whether they believe you have a legitimate excuse for using the road illegally. They usually take your no plate at least, give you an education (which is clearly what some people ) about the sign and a warning, sometimes in the form of a letter, however if you are caught more than once a lame excuse won't wash if your plate is on their records. I don't always agree with fines but we are long past a society which cares more about rules than saving time and money so the only way people will learn is being hit in the pocket.
