Green Slime Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I reckon this brave fella will not be going out again in a hurry after coming across a van driver who blocked the pavement and then punched him after asking the van driver to move. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-beds-bucks-herts-51801370 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sense of entitlement some people have to park wherever it’s convenient for themselves is staggering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iansheff Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Why do people feel the need to park half on the road and half on the grass verge when there isn't another vehicle near where they are parking? Also why do some people think it is ok to park half on the pavement and half on the verge making it difficult for people with prams or in a wheelchair.

Starve local authorities of cash, delegate more powers to said local authorities then blame them when nothing is done about thorny issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they aren't able to park snuggly to the kerb and need retraining ? Edited March 12, 2020 by Daven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alchresearch Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I think the modern scourge of car bloatedness and folk buying cars much bigger than they need without any thoughts as to where they can park are part of the problem. It genuinely worries me when I follow a large (empty) SUV on the back lanes near my home, swinging well over the central white line of the road when they go round a corner.
