Good idea, but if it refers to "Parked vehicles" they cannot be issued a S59 if they are under 15 Yards from a public highway!
I looked into this in the past.

We had a car parked on a blind bend in the village, buses used the already narrow road and it was a real danger, we phoned to police and told them that there were OS maps of the local hills in the car and the car had been there a few weeks, the checked to see who owned it and they were out the country!!!
The police couldnt move it because it was taxed and wasnt parked illegally, just stupidly!!!

If someone walked into it they could sue you. The pavement is council responsibility / property not yours. You simply have right of access across a pavement to get to your drive.

Only if the curb stones are lowered, otherwise you have no right of access to your property!
