The diagram is simplified. There are in the street that annoys me most, 5 cars on one side and 1 on the other. It's clear that making 1 park on the other side to his house is better than making 5 park opposite. I guess the best thing would be to ban all on road parking outside of specifically designated areas. I agree - people shouldn't own a car they don't have room for on their own property. I can fit 5 cars in my drive and own 1 (I've owned up to 3 in the past). |

Some bull**** about poorly sighted drivers can't see the car as the lights are the wrong colour? Don't drive if that bothers you! My complaint is WHERE the car is, not which way it's facing. Parking on alternate sides uses twice as much road space and larger vehicles can't get past. |

Singapore?), but something of the sort is needed in British and American cities, especially where the immediate housing form is a grid pattern of narrow terraced streets with little, if any, off-road garaging space. My street has drives for all the houses. My drive is unusually long and takes 5 cars (plus 1 in the garage if I didn't use it as a workshop). But most houses have room for 2 or 3 cars. Why buy a little house with a 2 car driveway if you can afford 5 brand new BMW 4x4s? Take that money, buy a mansion, and use older or cheaper cars! The mansion won't depreciate like the cars. Anyway, there's enough room for people to park on the street if they all park on the same side. It's simple logic that parking randomly on both sides takes up twice the room, as you need a gap between each one for passing traffic to slalom through. I can fit 5 cars in my drive and own 1 (I've owned up to 3 in the past). It's still not much to do with bikes, though. Cyclists will be inconvenienced by parked cars on roads. |

It works ok in most streets, particularly ones that get completely full when everyone's at home. If people parked on the other side, someone would end up with nowhere to park and there'd be arguments. How difficult is it to park on the same side as another car which is close to where you're parking? I always manage it, it's not rocket science. |

In the UK, we have narrower roads than you. It's normal to park in a residential area on the road (either because you have a cheap **** house with no drive, or you're stupid enough to have more cars than drive space). But sensible folk all park on the same side, meaning you can easily get past. Parking on any side you like means you create a slalom to get round the cars, and each car takes up twice the space, as you need a gap between each. |

You putting stuff under wipers isnt going to change anything Short of pushing the car to the correct position, what would you suggest? Not suggesting anything. Nothing you can do will change what they do parking wise. It did once. Nope. I was parking in a street for 5 minutes, and deliberately parked so as to block the road. I parked the same side as 10 other cars, ignoring the BMW (it's almost always a BMW, they're selfish pricks) that was stupidly on the other side. When someone tried to get past, I pointed to the BMW and blamed its driver. The guy trying to get past went and knocked on his door and started yelling. I drove away and left them to it. Had no effect on where he parked. I don't know what the conversation was, as I'd left, but I've since seen that car parked on the other side. It used to always be on the wrong side. The guy trying to get past was built substantially more heavy than the BMW owner. The police have already told me it's "not a police matter". They're right, they are parking legally. It shouldn't be legal to take up two spaces with one car. They arent doing that. You can't be that thick. Draw a diagram similar to the one I posted. Imagine every other car parks on the left, and every other car parks on the right. Leave enough gap for passing traffic to get past, and parked cars are at least one car's length apart. Now put them all on the same side, no gaps required. The council are lazy ****s who won't do anything. Nothing they can do either. My council won't do anything about anything, They obviously do collect the rubbish and put in those speed bumps you froth at the mouth about. They do both of those very badly indeed. and it's usually them causing the problem in the first place! Then do the decent thing and set fire to yourself outside their offices. Best just to set fire to their offices. When I spoke to the guy in person, he just looked completely confused, Yep, while thinking to himself 'this ****er is completely out of his ****ing tree' I took you as a bloke with some logic and common sense. You never could bull**** your way out of a wet paper bag. So you don't have common sense then, I can believe that. Draw a little diagram for yourself if it helps, or just use mine. You never could bull**** your way out of a wet paper bag. Parking on alternate sides of a street which is two car widths, takes up twice the room. And yet the council doesn't ban parking on one side of the street. They do when it becomes a problem. But usually when a street gets very busy, people start seeing sense. he wasn't intelligent enough to understand, I thought a simple diagram might help him, or he can get his wife to explain. Taint gunna work. Well there's always the mess a key makes of paintwork. That wont get them all parking on the same side either. But it'll cost the **** money, and it'll give me immense satisfaction. |

I guess the best thing would be to ban all on road parking outside of specifically designated areas. I agree - people shouldn't own a car they don't have room for on their own property. I'm inclined to agree with that. I understand that such a system is actually in use in some locations around the globe. Mainly large, crowded Asian cities (Tokyo? Singapore?), but something of the sort is needed in British and American cities, especially where the immediate housing form is a grid pattern of narrow terraced streets with little, if any, off-road garaging space. My street has drives for all the houses.* My drive is unusually long and takes 5 cars (plus 1 in the garage if I didn't use it as a workshop). But most houses have room for 2 or 3 cars.* Why buy a little house with a 2 car driveway if you can afford 5 brand new BMW 4x4s?* Take that money, buy a mansion, and use older or cheaper cars!* The mansion won't depreciate like the cars. Anyway, there's enough room for people to park on the street if they all park on the same side.* It's simple logic that parking randomly on both sides takes up twice the room, as you need a gap between each one for passing traffic to slalom through. The the authorities should mark it so. I have NEVER seen a situation like you describe. |

I still don't see which is the correct side of the street to park. Is it dictated by local custom and usage, or is it down to the first car to park dictating which side? First car to park obviously.* It works ok in most streets, particularly ones that get completely full when everyone's at home.* If people parked on the other side, someone would end up with nowhere to park and there'd be arguments.* How difficult is it to park on the same side as another car which is close to where you're parking?* I always manage it, it's not rocket science. And how do you know which car parked first to set your rule in effect? |
