The BAD PARKING thread [vol4]
Discussion
I must have spent far too much time reading this thread as when watching the video of Amir Khan being robbed a gunpoint I couldn’t help but notice that the car picking up Amir and his wife is parked on pedestrian crossing zigzags, although it is probably okay as the hazard warning lights were switched on.

As the police will have seen the video, we can be sure the driver was awarded three points.To the drivers credit he is parallel parked - to the hotel and the wall…..

Tbf, parking is hard to find in Bath 
This parker is increasingly annoying me .
I have walked past this a few times ,at night when I have also not had a camera with me , until today .
The road is a main road ,with a 30 mph limit and you can see the camera in 1 pic to slow everyone down .
The road is also wide enough for parking on it without impeding traffic and no parking restrictions .
The footpath is also twice as wide outside the nextdoor house .
The house it is parked at has an in and out driveway .
The next time I'm passing ,I shall use the in and out drive to walk past the house .
I don't care if they catch me on their doorbell cam .

Never understand this logic. By parking like that there isn’t enough room to get two cars through. If he parked normally there would be plenty of room for one car to pass. All he’s done is totally blocked the pavement for no benefit elsewhere.
Yep. Something I point out on my local FB group to the idiots that do it here. And still they come. BananaFama said:

Odd that someone got so upset about the Audi, when someone else has parked a motorhome on the grass a few feet away!HTP99 said:
There's a house near me where the owner regularly parks their I3 in a similar fashion. In their case it's done so that they can run the charging cable straight to the car over the front lawn / garden. In any case, it's completely pointess because by parking where they do the cable then has to run at least 2 metres plus longer than it would do if they just parked it on their own drive. Of course if they did that, then they wouldn't be able to leave the drive free for their friends / relatives when they come to visit
