A fellow Ford owner too

I hate people who park on pavements.

Anti-social arrses.

You would hate our area Clive, we have to park part on pavements otherwise you can't get a bike through let alone a car lol

If there is no other option where parking is crap then some dispensation is in order.

My peeve is where it's blatantly done because people are too lazy to find a proper space.

Causing a dangerous obstruction always draws my attention.

This was in our local rag a few years ago :)

On the other side of that wall in my picture is a free car park

I too hate people who park on pavements.

But the local plod always seem to drive straight past the offending cars...

As far as I am aware it's illegal (?), so how come the plod never stop and issue a fine? Or is it the council's job to do so? Kind of confused here...

The council take responsibility for parking around the roads, unless the vehicle is parked dangerously, likely to cause an accident or is blocking zig zags by crossings they don't tend to stop or get involved. Without the driver there to bite their ear they can do no more

Thanks for the explanation Jeebs.

No worries, much like you I keep an eye out for things, I tend to take photos and send them to the council parking enforcement team and let them nail them lol. They can't always do it but I have got a couple of feedback saying they issued a postal ticket with the supplied photos

This inconsiderate clown was parked in the Sainsburys car park Livingston

I like it when someone parks like that and then the next person parks right next to them!!!

If I had the money I would buy a cacker motor, and park it mm off the car. I just don't want my car damaged lol

Totally agree James, someone would probably key my car if i did that...

He could have at least pulled forward another foot to make it 7 spaces :lol:.

Haha belloneous endous

Just curious as to what the correct etiquette would be when parking that van and caravan?

Couldn't they have just used 2 spaces, one in front of the other, rather than across 6?

That's what the one behind did.

Two spaces and causing no trouble at all.

A lot of it is laziness and a case of bellpiecious totalis imho.

Just curious as to what the correct etiquette would be when parking that van and caravan?

The best etiquette with caravans is to not put them on our roads. Then no one is affected, parking is improved 500% travel times are improved by 35% and stress is reduced by 20%.

I think that's how it should be fixed lol
