The BAD PARKING thread [vol4]
Discussion
kers park on the pavement blocking a dropped kerb, it causes all sorts of problems for people in wheelchairs.
The red car with L plates had been waiting to leave the pub car park where I now am. She was indicating left, but turned right and went to park there.
Because she had L plates on - but was actually unaccompanied - I went over and said, "this is a really, really bad place to park"
"Why?
oh, let me count the ways
- solid white line
- right on top of a level crossing
- other side of level crossing the road drops steeply, so cars overtaking parked numpty, and already parked numpty in the black car are crossing a level crossing on the wrong side of the road with little visibility of cars coming the other way. Genius.
"but I'm only going to be here a couple of minutes" [continues texting]
Further up the road which was built long before anyone owned a car so is absolutely chocca, there are always three cars parked on the pavement. Two of them squeeze into the wall, one parks on the edge of the pavement so it's effectively blocked.
This BMW belongs to the owners of the bungalow. They park it on the verge either side of my mum's drive.
It's not about who owns what outside the front of the house, it's that it makes getting out of my mum's house - at the top of a hill - bloody difficult and has ruined the verges. God I hate people.

I was tempted to either drag the bins round the corner, or throw them over the fence onto the railways property (where they can't be retrieved) but unfortunately I frequent this road a lot. First time I have seen this though.
I moved the bin away from my car so I could leave the spot I was parked in.

Complain to the council about their property being left in an unsafe placeI was tempted to either drag the bins round the corner, or throw them over the fence onto the railways property (where they can't be retrieved) but unfortunately I frequent this road a lot. First time I have seen this though.
