Woke up to see this when I opened my curtains..
If they pulled forward approx 10ft there would be no problems as they would be parked infront of a small car sales place.
Aside from being half on the pavement, there's nothing wrong with their parking. You might prefer someone not to park there, but it's a public road, they're well past the dropped kerb, and not blocking your drive.

Let me guess, you’ll have to do a four or five point turn, to go in the direction that you wanted to, but couldn't, because someone was making life difficult, legally or otherwise.

I have no desire to be contentious, but what about if you turn right, and you’re looking at a solid brick wall as the road ends 20 metres from your drive?

Badly designed drive is not the neighbours fault...when planning mine the highways office reccommended putting the sloping kerb further out than I had planned to make sure drive would be useable.Let me guess, you’ll have to do a four or five point turn, to go in the direction that you wanted to, but couldn't, because someone was making life difficult, legally or otherwise.

So many large vehicles being driven by people lacking the ability to even round a corner means I wasn't shocked by all the cars that hadn't reversed in to the very wide spaces.
That doesn't mean I was any less disappointed though.

What is this obsession with some people about reversing into a space. What if you have a full trolley and dont fancy banging shopping against your or others cars. Surely if you can’t reverse out of a quote “very wide space” then frankly you should t be driving. Assuming I haven’t missed a parrot of course in which case, my bad
I was looking at it for a while thinking “most cars are reversed”, then I spotted the sign at the top and it started to make sense.Mr lestat said:

I dont get it either. Neither way is tricky to park, so I dont think its a skill thing. As long as you maneuver slowly and look all around then I cant see how either are a safety issue. Gassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
