Illegal or Comedic Parking Photos

[any-mgzt]

Parked at least a foot from the Kerb and 8 foot from the main road, been there for 4 days now it's a neighbours car, how many people do not know the highway code? Parking is not permitted within 10m (32ft) from any jenction, and you should not park with your vehicle facing oncoming traffic. Sorry for bad photo, raining and failed double glazing unit steamed up.

Another fool BMW, turned out to be a woman, parked across the entrance to a disabled neighbours garage, the focus should have been in the garage but he always leaves it in front during the day.

And they must have parking lights on during the hours of darkness if within 10 metres of a junction.

They can't even park so you think they have light on??

The guy with the Mini had to call RAC to change wheel for space saver, and then refit when tyre repaired/replaced, so what does that tell you.

Extract from highway code.




Rule 243

DO NOT stop or park:

near a school entrance

anywhere you would prevent access for Emergency Services

at or near a bus or tram stop or taxi rank

on the approach to a level crossing/tramway crossing

opposite or within 10 metres (32 feet) of a junction, except in an authorised parking space

near the brow of a hill or hump bridge

opposite a traffic island or (if this would cause an obstruction) another parked vehicle

where you would force other traffic to enter a tram lane

where the kerb has been lowered to help users and powered mobility vehicles

in front of an entrance to a property
on a bend

where you would obstruct cyclists’ use of cycle facilities except when forced to do so by stationary traffic.

Rule 244

You MUST NOT park partially or wholly on the pavement in London, and should not do so elsewhere unless signs permit it. Parking on the pavement can obstruct and seriously inconvenience pedestrians, people in s or with visual impairments and people with prams or pushchairs.

Rule 248

You MUST NOT park on a road at night facing against the direction of the traffic flow unless in a recognised parking space.

No not really - but if someone was to report the car being parked there w/o lights they should get a fixed penalty ticket and will hopefully think twice about parking there again!

Reporting to the police is pointless, parking is lowest priority, my daughter is a Merseyside officer they tend to turn a blind eye until there is an accident due to bad parking.

To be honest they have enough other work to do like chasing up people who miss court dates etc and sitting in hospitals because their prisoner threw up and claims to have some illness. You know really important stuff.

You don't have to tell me - I was a Police Officer for 32 years until I retired - but the law is the law and being 'too busy' was never an excuse regardless of how minor the complaint was. Waiting for someone to get seriously injured in an accident, because someone is too thick, idle,etc to park their car correctly, is not acceptable either.

I agree, but budget and staff cuts have consiquesenses, my daughter goes single crew during the night is sone unsavoury areas. Not really what I agree her doing and I see it's a waste of her law degree, but she did not get a training contract position after uni. Her husband is a solicitor and at the moment she is on maternity leave so even more an issue her single crewing when she goes back.
