Street Parking

Nothing you can do, but I know how annoying it is. Living in a terrace with no driveway myself, I sympathise completely.

You would think that people would have some consideration for others by parking sensibly rather than leave just enough room between cars that it means depriving others from a space close to their house, instead they leave a useless 5ft gap full of air.

We have it on our street. We own 1 car, the house next door but one and their neighbour on the other side own 4 cars between them, and they have to have all their cars parked outside their front door. She even parks between houses, which leaves an empty space that could be utilised as another parking space for someone else.

It's frustrating, but the only thing you can do is ask them to park more considerately. OTOH they can also tell you to jog on.

Our old next door neighbours had 2 sons and so had 3 cars in the household.


They would park in a row and if either one of them went out the other 2 drivers would come out at the same time and move their 2 cars apart to cover the 3 spaces till the first driver came back.


Ive even seen them out at 1am in dressing gowns when one of the sons has been out moving all 3 cars to secure the parking spaces.


It 2 of the cars were going out at the same time they had a motorbike at the back of the house they would push round and leave in the road.


Quite laughable really.

It's incredibly sad.

Buy 3 bangers and park outside their house, better still buy with foreign plates as no need for tax, insurance, mot, plus council and police will refuse to touch the cars as they have foreign plates.
