It’s such a no brainier, should have been done years ago. But, as ever, drivers freak out at the prospect of not being able to park directly outside their house.The campaign to get pavement parking clearly banned nationwide does not seem to be getting anywhere fast, so far.

People in parks are supposed to be there as are trains in station. People leaving their private property lying around on the street shouldn’t complain if it gets a bit battered or goes missing.So should people in parks, they ought to be rounded up and destroyed. And don't get me started on stationary trains in train stations.

Don't worry, I didn't - I just spotted that bit.Good to know at least one person reads all the words in my posts on this godforsaken thread.
I didn’t say owt about the law, divclart.Yes, everything in its proper place should be taken down, apparently.
Cars are supposed to be on highways, as hand carts were in the olden days. It's established in common law that a conveyance stopped on a highway does not constitute an obstruction unless free passage is actually obstructed, and parking is not an offence in statute law unless specific criteria are met. So in this case leaving "private property" on a highway is not the same as littering.
If you want to change the law to render cars on roads litter, and consequently have them swept away, feel free to write to your MP.
