The BAD PARKING thread [vol3]
Discussion

In the roadworks on the M4 near Newbury I saw a bloke in a 5 series driving like this earlier this evening. The speed limit is 50 and he sailed by at about 70 straddling two lanes. The lanes are narrow, admittedly, but everyone one else was coping.Okay, mate, you're either very important or you can't drive.
Bizarre.

Call the police, he is parked facing the wrong way.
Has anyone been ticketted for a lighting-up law violation in the last 3 decades I wonder?Our local Police "don't do parking" anyway - they keep reminding us it's not their job to do it - if I called them I'd be told to contact the council (who have 3 wardens who only cover the town centre between 9-5 Mon-Sat)
Some people around here actually think double-yellows don't apply after 6pm - they think that's the actual law - simply because no-one EVERY gets a ticket after that time ;0

Just how the actual f^&k can anyone walk away from that with a clear conscience? What is the mental deficiency that some car drivers (I use the term very, very loosely in this instance) have which makes them think as long as they are not inconveniencing other car drivers, they can just abandon their vehicle and it's somehow OK?!It well and truly yanks my chain.
