As far as I see it, they'll refuse any planning application because it is
in breach of the Highway Code to reverse onto a highway and as such could
be construed to be a breach of the Road Traffic Act.

I can't understand why anybody drives into a drive in the first place. It's
easier to reverse in and drive out.

I might have missed something of course ...

I have a kit-car (Lotus 7 style) which has a long bonnet and the seats
right at the back - due to a neighbour's hedge, visibility (particularly
checking for pedestrians) is much better if I reverse out! However for my
everyday car, I always reverse in.
