Re: Pavement Parking
My street is one side only and a one way street as well. So cars drive as fast as they can the wrong way, half on the footpath and one day people will get killed.

Re: Pavement Parking
That street, Sea View Street, is also a one way street but that doesn't appear to matter either. It's a lawless town.

Re: Pavement Parking
Maybe.
I nearly got run over this afternoon as a taxi was driving on the footpath. The roadworks improvements have just finished; result, worse than before.
