The BAD PARKING thread [vol4]
Discussion
Not bad parking, just wanted to get a parking issue of my chest.
Pulled up by the house after work yesterday, the road was relatively clear of parked cars so I parked in my usual spot just opposite the house, reversed back as close as I could to the neighbours dropped kerb so as to give maximum space for anyone else to park along that part of the road ahead infront of (tbh don't know why I actually bother as most just seem to bung their car anywhere with no thought for anyone else, frequently leaving their cars in such a place they they taking up 1 and a half spaces!)
As I was reversing up to the dropped kerb I noticed the daughter of the neighbour (some hag in her 60's), glaring at me, she was on the drive just about to get in her car. I parked up, got out walked round the back of the car to the passenger side to get a few bags out, she was still glaring, she then said "Errr can you not park so close to the drive, I can't get out now, you are parked across the dropped kerb"
I responded with, "I'm not, you've plenty of space to get out", "no, you are too close to the dropped kerb" I walked round to the back of the car pointed to where the rear of the car was and said "look, the rear of my car is right at the beginning of the first sloped bit of the dropped kerb, there is nothing wrong with my parking"
"no, it's the next bit of kerb before that (pointing to the beginning of the next section of kerb before where it drops), that is where you are supposed to park" I told her she was wrong and pointed again to where I was parked and said that, that was were it was however if her driving is so poor that she can't reverse out into a clear road then I'd move my car forward "you are such a no it all" was her response, I just responded with "that's rich coming from someone who tried to tell me something that was wrong"
I moved my car forward, got out to walk to the house "you lot are so annoying, you think you own this but of road with your parking" she shouted after me. I wish I'd got back in the car and moved it back to where it was.
Parking where I live can be a nightmare, I always park considerately to maximise space, I never park across a dropped kerb, not even a fraction over which is more than can be said about some others.
Where I am now, the arrow is where is where I was.

Yes it would make it a bit more difficult to get out, but I'm afraid that's life, if she hadn't had been so off with me, given me the glare, etc and maybe came up and had a chat then things would have ended up amicably.
I'm going to continue to continue to park there.

Its not so bad when its a car like pictured, a small hatchback and what looks a quiet street. But when coming off a driveway on a busy road with a large SUV with tints on it, parked close, its a pain for visibility.
OP, nothing wrong with your parking though as such.

Your joking! Do you drive? I have never figured out why people drive onto their drives, and have an awful time of reversing out, personally I have always reversed into a parking slot, whether my drive or in a car park.
Then again some are crap at reversing/parking.
Yes I do, and normally reverse into my drive, but will go in forwards occasionally if I want to get the car jacked up (as per my other posts not very well sometimes as I managed to scrape the car down my gate post yesterday Then again some are crap at reversing/parking.

). If a van parks close to my gate it can make reversing out a bit difficult. Car not so much as I can still see but makes it more difficult to manoeuvre. Note I'm saying more difficult - it still isn't difficult or dangerous, but just a bit more of a nuisance.HTP99 said:
The drive is used once a week, parking around my area is, a nightmare so I like to maximise parking space for everyone else, I'm not going to be that person who parks in such a way that it screws some else when they want to park There are people who'll park a bit over that dropped kerb
Yes it would make it a bit more difficult to get out, but I'm afraid that's life, if she hadn't had been so off with me, given me the glare, etc and maybe came up and had a chat then things would have ended up amicably.

I mean why ask for a view if you are going to ignore the majority that agree with her. If someone regularly parked that close to my drive I'd probably politely ask if they could park a few feet back. Sounds like you responded rather badly to the request. Yes it would make it a bit more difficult to get out, but I'm afraid that's life, if she hadn't had been so off with me, given me the glare, etc and maybe came up and had a chat then things would have ended up amicably.

No argument jamei, but as for the number plate, for some unknown reason, they’d often disappear from car parks, so when I dropped the trailer off overnight, I’d remove the plate.
Why are we apparently the only country in the world that makes you put a copy of the tow car/tractor unit's plate on the trailer? Everywhere else registers them and gives them their own plate.Rostfritt said:

This is just a wild stab in the dark, so don’t jump down my throat if it’s wrong.Let’s assume that an articulated truck is being driven along a street with parked vehicles on one side of that street.
The trailer accidentally brushes against a car, leaving a scratch in the bodywork.
If someone notes that the number plate on the trailer reads ABC123, then in U.K., that should tally with the unit pulling the trailer, so whoever is driving the unit is presumably ultimately responsible for the damage.

I mean why ask for a view if you are going to ignore the majority that agree with her. If someone regularly parked that close to my drive I'd probably politely ask if they could park a few feet back. Sounds like you responded rather badly to the request.
It was initially parked way too close to 'her' drive. So what if she *could* get on and off, reversing or driving.
That was made more difficult.
I'd be doing what she did.

It's a couple of feet, do the right thing

I don't think anyone is right or wrong.
