better parking etiquette

[Alan Medic]

I don't understand why that annoys you DeeDee. What would you like other car parkers to do?

Too right!

Basic skills.

If we had better public transport, you might see fewer people keeping cars. Long term that's the best solution to 'parking stress'.... That, and trying to keep things in perspective

If parking is getting you down then it is time to ditch the car - as many urbanites have

Think about it - sitting there being unused for 95% of the time, depreciating, costing you loads just standing still.

Alternatively on the subject of the sharing economy, share your vehicle with a neighbour. http://www.streetsalive.org.uk/my-street/car-sharing.aspx

Also those people who near double yellows but leave a gap of about 4 feet between their car and the start of the yellow lines!

I'm sure all these bad parkers are only doing it to people so sick of it we all ask for a CPZ

amazingly, since my original post I have seen a marked improvement in parking in my road!
