This street is double parked it's whole length, this car was locked, in gear and handbrake on, everyone else just had to reverse back.

Was working nearby, checked an hour later and it was still there.
Taxis do that down our cul-de-sac & refuse to move to the space they are next too. I just park up behind them, lock the car & leave it 10-15mins. They are beginning to learn how to use parking spaces these days...

Didn't just ignore them; moved the barriers that had been put up to stop parking!

Hungarian driver proves not only is parking bad in the UK. This was in the only car park at the bridge on the Tara Gorge, Montenegro, and was very busy.

There's a car park at that bridge now? Last time I was there all there was was a wee cabin with cat st under the beds. Blimey. How's the road up there these days? It was always like something you see on "World's Most Dangerous Roads", from Bolivia or somewhere. I can't imagine taking a dirty great camper van up there!

'Local garden centre.



Not that clear on the picture, but the Saab is totally parked on a path, it's not hard to spot it's a path when your actually there, hmmmmmm there is a path there, and the lock blocking there is a different shade.

Anyone coming back to their car with a garden trolly or for that matter a buggy or wheelchair would make a 180 turn and go back to find another exit.

Left a very nice note on its windscreen, honest, "You are parked on a walkway", I was tempted though.

It seems to have become more geared to the tourist now-including a seriously scarey zip wire ride. Rode there on our motorbikes and it rained heavily a lot of the way. Many sections of crash barrier missing or squashed flat right along side massive, and i mean massive, drops (only the Grand Canyon is deeper). One interesting section is an unlit tunnel with a 180 degree hairpin in the middle of it. A warning sign or reflective chevrons may have assisted. Even so, a fantastic road if you like that sort of thing!

Just couldn't see any reason for this one - the road is more than wide enough to park both sides!

Yes but what does the HSE Stand for? It might be his company so he parks where he likes?
