Think this will help? This will be printed off and placed under the
wipers of all the nutters who park on the wrong side of the road:

As a cyclist you should appreciate that bad parking is annoying.

You putting stuff under wipers isnt going to change anything

Short of pushing the car to the correct position, what would you suggest?

Not suggesting anything. Nothing you can do will change what they do parking
wise.

It did once. I was parking in a street for 5 minutes, and deliberately parked so as to block the road. I parked the same side as 10 other cars, ignoring the BMW (it's almost always a BMW, they're selfish pricks) that was stupidly on the other side. When someone tried to get past, I pointed to the BMW and blamed its driver. The guy trying to get past went and knocked on his door and started yelling. I drove away and left them to it.

The police have already told me it's "not a police matter".

They're right, they are parking legally.

It shouldn't be legal to take up two spaces with one car.

The council are lazy ****s who won't do anything.

Nothing they can do either.

My council won't do anything about anything, and it's usually them causing the problem in the first place!

When I spoke to the guy in person, he just looked completely confused,

Yep, while thinking to himself 'this ****er is completely out of his ****ing
tree'

I took you as a bloke with some logic and common sense. Draw a little diagram for yourself if it helps, or just use mine. Parking on alternate sides of a street which is two car widths, takes up twice the room.

he wasn't intelligent enough to understand, I thought a simple diagram
might help him, or he can get his wife to explain.

Taint gunna work.

Well there's always the mess a key makes of paintwork.
