Came home again last night to find the bins on the street not emptied; the cause was yet again some self-absorbed, inconsiderate onanist of a train commuter who had parked like a complete spacktard meaning the bin lorry couldn't get through.

This is surely a Police matter if this is the only suitable route available for, e.g. Ambulance and Fire Service vehicles?

The Police seem remarkably unflustered by it, sadly, despite fknuggetery such as this:




Some drivers take a creative approach to getting through:

parked liked this when we went into Pizza Hut and it hadn't moved nearly 90 minutes later. Some people!

I do that....Only when there is other spaces around. I prefer end bays against a kerb though and keep well to the side.

Car doesn't have a single door ding on it and I want to keep it that way.

Car park had plenty of spaces as well! (Evident by the space next to it)

Is this the Bridge Inn in Walshford. I am one the actors who do murder nights there... I must admit, that never usually has bad parking.

The Golf started to reverse out and struggled somewhat.

The width of those spaces look massive.

Yes, that is an obstruction offence

Nope.
Happens all the time on bus routes I drive. Police won't do anything unless the road is completely blocked.

So how do you get by? If a bus is stuck then everyone else behind will be, all because of some selfisg tt

That's happened a few times, a thread somewhere on PH's.

While you are away, after parking like a 'Bad Parking' thread post, all those empty spaces around you have been filled and then you become a
genuine 'Bad Parking' thread entry.

It seems strange to post on this thread and then admit that you park like all the photographs that we chuckle over and criticise and fume over.

Poor photo, my phone is on it's last legs.

Sort of bad parking. Dustbin day, neighbour comes home, moves bin so,she can park on the pavement, (bin was at the edge of the kerb), not that it's a busy road so you could have parked ON the road, and not to mention her driveway is clear, the bin stays there about six hours until her OH comes home from work, puts car on their drive and shifts the bin....

This is a few yards down the road from a village shop (it's by the bus stop you can see on the left, and used by many residents including a lot of elderly people), and a few hundred yards from the primary school. Anyone walking along here will have to enter the road to get past (the van's not helping at all). This is a regular issue (not this car particularly, but many of them), because the houses to the left have no road parking.

Last Friday at Flitwick station car park.
I walked up to the car just to make sure no-one was in it. Even now I still can't quite believe it was left like this

Is it possible the car park was full when he left it there and deemed the road wide enough to not interfere with other parked cars? Not condoning, but an explanation of what's going on?

Bloody Audi drivers!

Are we playing Jeopardy? "What do you call a group of badly parked tts?"

Uaual bunch of tards in Sainsbury's, abandoned on a corner blocking clear access for other road users, and they will be the first to moan when someone clips the front.



Obviously it too much effort to check the back of the car.

[Muddle238]

Ignore the rather lovely DS19 in the foreground, the little green Fiat 500 in the background turned up, lady looked like she was going to do a 3-point turn, but then just turned off her engine, got out and walked off.

They won't because it won't get clipped. That's reserved for properly parked cars. Same as getting keyed.

Chieveley Services again. Two of them, one parked over the Stop sign.

He is stopped though, so maybe it's okay.
