I did find the initial response somewhat 'nannyish'.  Its just how you treat kids.  Wholly unnecessary.

Well boys, I'll leave you to it! Anyway, when you get to big School you'll discover debate is all about people with differing views

So what is your question, or do you know all the answers?  


No I don't.  Actually have no questions at all.  Strong supporter of parking enforcement.  The issue I had was how the question was posed.  When it comes to gift horses - I always check the teeth...

As it seems - but the context was a complaint about the way the point was put, not the point itself.

EVERYBODY CALM DOWN, NOW!!  This is the problem with forums...too many egos and petty arguments  

If any of you have any PARKING related questions, go right ahead, otheriwse, I ain't interested to be honest. I'm not here to make silly points or to prove anyone wrong.  I will provide sensible and factually correct answers to any Parking related queries.

Well chaps and chapesses, now that the dust has settled, on this and the other thread.............

Mr GM you said....I Quote,

But you did perhaps invite  a negative response by your thread heading. Again I quote...

Hi

I have an actual question !!!!  I have to drive down Kings Road West quite often later at night.  This has a single yellow line.  Is there nothing that can be done to stop people parking on this road as it is a nightmare.  You come round the corner and can't see really if anything is coming up.  Also I have quite often had people walk out from behind one of the parked cars.  Obviously you personally can't make this a double yellow but from what time of they day are they allowed to park on a single yellow?

Hi Pink

The section of Single Yellow Lines you are referring to operate between 8am and 6pm, Monday to Saturday.  It is legal to park here outside of these times.  Most single yellow lines apply between the same times, but not all are the same. There should always a sign stating the hours of operation, so be sure to check the times on the sign before you park.  Obstructions to the highway or dangerous parking is a Police matter, as they are still criminal offences.

Hope this answers your question!

Perhaps the answer would be for those persons parking where they shouldn't or overstaying their limit to be given a choice for a first offence, pay the fine or attend a two hour course on how and where to park. If they really can't afford the fine here would be the way out with some instruction on the side. They call it speed awareness if you get a speeding ticket so it could be called parking awareness.


No, the answer is for people to park where they should. It is a no-brainer to understand that in 2010 you can't just park where you want to . Those that get tickets are just chancers.
