Umm, yes.

Have you been in many towns in the last - oooh - few decades?



What's actually happening is that people are insisting on parking on
both sides of the road. To leave room for traffic, they park on the
pavement. If they all parked the same side, there'd be room, both for
the traffic and the parked cars. Of course, some people would have to
walk all the way across the road to their front door.


I'm notocing an increasing tendency to park *just* on the kerb. It
saves no real space. I think it's a modern replacement for the use of
hazard warning lights as a 'get out of jail free' card.


I live near a skool. The bimbo, thick as pig ****, child benefit claiming,
scum parents always jump the kerb to park.
Jumping the kerb to park whilst picking up their flat headed brats is
probably the only sensible thing they have done in all of their pointless
lives.
