Came across this today loading slap bang in the middle of the road.

100% bet there was some entitled nobber parked in the loading bay to the right of that truck that was "just nipping to the shops" that has gone and left the wagon in the road.

Probably also the sort who decides they deserve ALL the flat surface space in the Gym changing room, like a German tourist with a beach towel.

They absolutely always have a face like a smacked arse when you ask them to move their strategically spaced items.

Local Lib Dem councillor that lives on my road apparently can’t cope with driving another 10 feet forwards on to her empty drive so just blocks the entire pavement instead ffs

Cretinous parking like that deserves foot marks across the roof.

Absolute moronic parking.

Report her to the council for blocking the pavement. Bet nothing happens.

No photo but a van parked strategically in a 30 zone, diagonally opposite a car on the other side, this “double chicane” causing grief for traffic trying to get through. Didn’t think much of it on my way through other than poor parking, however on the way back noticed the back of the van was plastered in A3-sized homemade posters stating “30mph limit!” or along those lines.

Clearly parked deliberately to cause an obstruction, would surprise me if it had been parked in collaboration with the car on the other side. The 30 zone in question wasn’t a quiet residential back street either, it’s a main road and busy route. It’s immediately off J14 on the M6, the motorway is probably 200 yards away. Could very easily cause traffic to back up onto the roundabout and motorway, all because some dhead bought a house 200 yards from a motorway and doesn’t like traffic.

All in favour of a bit of vandalism in circumstances pictured.

Just playing devils advocate but could it be a case of not applying the handbrake properly? Driveway looks to be on an incline.

However if it was deliberate, then it’s inexcusable.

You are having a laugh!?
It rolled enough to get down cover the pavement then just stopped itself perfectly before going on the road?
Or maybe rolled back on to the road, then rolled forward again and stopped on the pavement perfectly?

No, it's regularly parked like that, or parked half on the drive and half on the pavement. Just happened to walk down that side of the road with the kids yesterday and remembered to get a pic.

Just leave a note saying your gran could not pass in her wheelchair and could they be a bit more considerate.

Then if they do it again, you know what sort of person they are.....

I presume she has some sort of social media for her council job, post the picture there.
