Now that's what I call DIY.


Rights and wrongs aside, she is lucky the car owner did not get a mate
with a fork truck or hire one and put the bag behind the other car.

Hmmm, an interesting semi-legal point. Depending on how it's done
there's a range of inconvenience to the malparker, from a single cone
to the bag of gravel in the original photo.

Either could be moved using no particular skill or equipment to allow
the car to be driven away. But at what point does the amount of
material qualify it as an obstruction?

Could she not have put up a "clamping " type warning sign, got herself a
wheel clamp and made a fortune - or solved her problem.


Illegal in England now...
