The BAD PARKING thread [vol3]

[Sticks.]

As well as blocking almost all the path, the driver needed to reverse onto an A road on leaving.

Requesting a driving license application form, no doubt.

Nothing going on, other than perhaps donut consumption;-)

1) Using ANPR.
2) Waiting for the baddie to pass then give chase.
3) Just watchin'
4) Taking the police dog for walkies. Nice bush right there.

None of the above (apart from the bush) as no one in the car and not a dog handler car. I believe the same laws do apply to the police, unless on blues.

I don't see a problem, he probably has a call in one of the shops across the road. Do you expect him to drive around looking for a pay-and-display?

If it's not a 999 response, yes.

So what happens if he/she gets a call on the radio asking them to attend a scene urgently ?

I worked in Salisbury for two years.
It's a old city not designed for cars and there isnt much parking round there, if they were on a routine call.

So unless they wish to park a 8min walk away in Castle Street pay & display and likely miss that 999 call you mention, I would suggest it's acceptable.

Where was that taken as it looks very familiar, as does the MINI?

Spot the odd one out.

Should they not all be parked parallel to the kerb? Check the white line!

If you must drive a BIG car, learn how to park it.

Conversely, if you can't drive/park a big car, DON'T fkING BUY ONE in the first place, !

Bwhahahahahaha! You bloody fool. Apologies, bloody internet fool. It is fascinating that the keyboard warriors on this site bemoan the lack of social generosity of spirit and yet cannot extend it to those who serve the community. Suddenly the coin is flipped and the most trivial of transgressions, despite not knowing the full story, becomes the noose with which they will hang them with. The juvenile logic and hypocrisy of some of the posters on this site is truly astounding sometimes.

No problem with that, even if they are going for doughnuts.

Nope. The white line runs at a diagonal. There's actually only one of them - to separate the disabled space at the end from the rest.
