Just to close this one out, I emailed the Scottish Ambulace Service and they confirmed their ambulances do have the height of the vehicle displayed in the cab.

A few pages ago I suggested perhaps it wasn't displayed.

Took my little girl for a walk in her pram yesterday. Came across two muppets who had blocked the path and access for the pram:





The one at the bottom is regularly parked on the ample drive space. Not yesterday though, for some reason.

You want to nip back to kwikfit, it seems someone has mistakenly put low profile, performance road tyres on yer big, rufty, tufty off roader
Got m+s tyres fitted. Don't need to be told how to go off road. Work for a off road centre, do enough off roading wink

It's not their fault your daughter hasn't learnt to walk yet.

Indeed. At the tender age of 9 months, she can't yet walk.

Her jokes are funnier than yours though.

Had the pleasure of visiting B&Q twice this weekend. Each time this monumental bellend was parked like this. Mustn't have wanted to get his shoddy matt wrap marked.

biggrin Regularly use that bit of the North Circ and recognized that new event place on the other side of the roads. What a wonderful setting to host a wedding, in the midst of the smog on the A406!! yes

Two I spotted in North Wales. Personally I think parking like this is more likely to attract damage to your vehicle!

Tesco Broughton:-



Buckley Town:-

Taking the space of two cars and blocking a dropped kerb. For a period of several days.

(Although whether it is a good idea to put a dropped kerb in a parking bay is another matter)!

A pretty special effort from one of my neighbours tonight...

With parking like that they deserve the blue badge!

A bill banning parking on pavements is to be introduced to the Scottish Parliament for the third time.

Under the current law, only driving on the pavement is prohibited unless councils have passed specific traffic regulations.

SNP MSP Sandra White hopes her proposals will stop vehicles blocking walkways, a particular issue for people with mobility problems.

But it is unclear whether Holyrood or Westminster has the power to legislate.

The Footway Parking and Double Parking (Scotland) Bill would make it an offence to park on footways or drop kerbs and would outlaw double parking.

to be fair about the dropped kerb it doesn't look like it leads anywhere so not really an issue I would have though?
