Its simple physics, many roads in towns, cities, and villages, are simply not wide enough.
There are always the odd idiots, but most people park (partly) on pavements simply becasue they need to, to let other traffic get by.

Or do like they do in Japan. You're not allowed to park on the street and unless you have a space to park, you're not allowed a big car.
In my town, some parts allow parking on the footpath, but in others it's illegal and £150 fine.
I feel cars park on the footpath because they don't want their precious cars scratched.
