    With abysmal parking like that, you should have got points, but I doubt you will get anything. Do your feet not work? Have you ever read the Highway Code?
    I'm sick of not being able to turn into junctions because some moron has parked right up to it and, as you did, over it.
  • Have to agree with connor on this,dont think you will get booked but i for one am sick of trying to negotiate drivers and i use the term loossely,who block junctions,park on yellow lines so you have to come out of side roads unable to see whats coming and endangering mine and others lives just so some fool does not have to walk 10 or 20 yards further.

    I dont believe you.

    How do you know it was ten seconds? Have a stop watch? Why on earth did you stop for that short period of time?

    With a bit of luck you should get fined.
