    I agree with the OP. Two points about overtaking parked cars spring to mind
    • If people more parked on their drive and not on the road then this situation would be less common, so reducing road accidents.
    • Approaching a car parked on opposite side of the road, so I have clear priority over oncoming traffic.
      The approaching driver number 1 overtakes the car - fair enough lots of time
      The driver 2 overtakes - that's cutting it a bit fine
      I slam on the brakes and sound the horn only to get black looks from driver number three who insists on pulling out!
      Sheep Driver 4 sees the opening ...
