Only if you're a stupid pedant. Most people are sensible enough to
avoid parking in front of a DRIVEWAY, not a dropped kerb.

If there is no dropped kerb, then you are not causing any

You are obstructing the DRIVEWAY. The lowered kerb is a convenience for
the householder only. You are a stupid ****ing retard and don't deserve
to drive a car.

In fact I would intentionally park across a driveway that
has been built without a dropped kerb just to make a point
that the house owner is a cheapskate.

Do that to me and your car gets keyed (or worse). Grow up.


Then you would end up with a criminal record and I would choose
the most expensive body refinisher to fix my car at your
expense.

If there is NO DROPPED KERB, then you have no legal right to
build a drive and expect legal road users to park for your
convenience. Legal fact. Ask the police if you want confirmation.

Correct, legally you can only cross a pavement at a dropped kerb. But
this is too hard for Jimbo to understand.

Most people aren't so stupidly childish to think a dropped kerb would change anything.

While most Americans believe that getting rid of religion is an impossible goal, much of the developed world has already accomplished it. Any account of a €�god gene€œ that causes the majority of Americans to helplessly organize their lives around ancient works of religious fiction must explain why so many inhabitants of other First World societies apparently lack such a gene. The level of atheism throughout the rest of the developed world refutes any argument that religion is somehow a moral necessity. Countries like Norway, Iceland, Australia, Canada, Sweden, Switzerland, Belgium, Japan, the Netherlands, Denmark and the United Kingdom are among the least religious societies on Earth. According to the United Nations Human Development Report (2005) they are also the healthiest, as indicated by measures of life expectancy, adult literacy, per capita income, educational attainment, gender equality, homicide rate and infant mortality. Conversely, the 50 nations now ranked lowest in
terms of human development are unwaveringly religious.
