RANT! Bloody potential accidents waiting to happen.

beast5680:
we had that at our kids school muppets kept parking on the zig zags despite repeated pleas from the school to parents, so the school invited the local plod in to do a safety chat to the kids :D  as last lesson reminders on how to cross the road etc.
the teacher then invited said plod to take a look at the front of the school and parking and he promptly ticketed all those on the zig zags :twisted:
they do spot checks now as a child nearly got flattened because of this and carry out zero tolerance, if your tyre touches any part of the yellow lines now you get a ticket, it seems to have cured the problem at the minute

V8MoneyPit:
What I find amusing is that they think it's OK to park dangerously (there is a good reason why it's illegal) if they put their hazard lights on  :shock:

And they would be the first to complain if it was their kids getting knocked down  :evil:

Lostboy:
I had a woman in an MPV getting upset at me this morning, because I happened to be merely standing on the pavement so she could not manouver down the road the 20 yards to her kids school.

Call me dumb here, but to turn from a three lane road into a dual carriageway you shouldn't really need to drive over the pavement should it?

strapping young lad:
i live directly opposite a primary school and parents get there about 30-60 mins early just to park 50ft closer and to show their shiny cars


sad so sad

Bob696:
......  mmmmmm could bore you all stupid about parking outside of a school but I will just relate todays incident.

Picture this, school entrance with a pedestrian refuge in the middle. Today I nearly had a ford focus in the side of the 90 as they did a U turn OVER the refuge between the bollards :shock:  Sod the kids who were using it at the time.
