People parking on the paths!, 6th November
I’m sick of ppl parking cars on the paths in the street. I have to walk around these cars and push my pram and dog into the road to get past and then rejoin the path after the car. Last night I tried to do this and because of another car parked on the opposite path I was nearly hit by a moving car who had to squeeze through the gap to drive past. It’s not acceptable. It’s rude lazy and inconsiderate. Stop!!
