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:

Side 1, facing outwards for everyone to see:

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.


Always good when idiots such as yourself damage other's property due to
your self righteous beliefs when they are within their legal rights to
do so.

Obviously you aren't intelligent enough to handle a trivial issue to
which sane people don't have a problem.


He may have the legal right to take up two spaces, but morally he's a ****ing arsehole, and he will get what he deserves.
