Until last August I lived in the house on the corner of King William Street and Eastcott Road in Old Town, and on many occasions I was unable to get my car in or out because someone had parked across the garage.

Frequently, I had to go into the school, try to find the culprit and ask them to move their car. Most people seemed to think I was causing them an inconvenience!

Once I asked if I could come to their house and park across their garage for five minutes while I nipped to the local shop apparently this was not the same.

And no one seemed to consider that by parking wherever they saw, they were creating a real danger to the many children who walked to and from school by blocking the view of both pedestrians and drivers.

Cost is a poor excuse for parking dangerously.
