One metre away from parking in a legal spot - tick
Blocking access to/from start of shared footpath/cyle lane (not obvious but that's a dropped kerb) - tick
Abusive, shouty reaction when politely pointed out - tick

"I don't care" shouted repeatedly then screamed "I've got to get my nurses to their appointments on time". Repeat.

Leeds Community Healthcare NHS Trust - pleased I'm not one of her patients.

I was embarrassed for the poor (junior) nurse in the car with her.

Thats worthy of reporting tonthe trust. Unless they're rushing in to give someone CPR they should be parking safely and lawfully.

Id question their ability to make potentially life saving decisions regarding patient care it they cant manage something as simple as that.

Probably will say that there's nothing wrong with the parking, like H&W fire service did.

Garforth I think?

If it is where I think it is that shared access is poor, when I come through the junction I stay on the road as there's no provision for rejoining the road if you use the shared space.

It is, top of Main Street. I come from Barrowby Lane rather than through the junction via the main road so it's a more natural line - and then hop back onto the road when there's a suitable gap!
