It's the preferred method round my way. There even are signs telling you to do it. Mind you we do have wide-ish pavements, but I bet they would be awkward at best for a wheelchair user. Some parkers are more enthusiastic than others when parking on the pavement. Especially those with vans and other big vehicles (who naturally prefer to park not only on the pavement, but at junctions to maximise their visibility-blocking effect).
Being posh and bourgeous I have a garage.

There's a white van man on my road who leaves enough space that I can sidle past sideways (though I hve to limbo under his wing mirror). Anyone fatter than me wouldn't get by.

Ohh to have pavements to park on :
This is the view from my house. My nearest pavement is about 5km away.

Why take issue with someone who isn't a close neighbour?
It takes to to tango and leaving an online rant unanswered would quickly quell the riot.

Then don your asbestos underwear to cope with the flames and quit the faux indignation.

Susan Shaw is the indignant one, a mild remark about pavement parking and she accuses Sara of popping wheelies, riding to a breast and riding on pavements, then she says she's glad she doesn't live near someone with an opinion.
I don't think Susan Shaw hasn't got all her chairs in the dining room.

A lot of poorly designed housing estates have roads that aren't wide enough for two cars to pass in opposite directions, the demands placed on roads and housing stock was never anticipated when they were built, perhaps assuming only families would live in them and they'd have only one car between them which would be parked on a drive, that and they were built to satisfy the post war baby boom and needs to replace and rebuild housing damaged in the war.
Fast forward to now where houses are often shared accommodation for several adults, each with their own car or van, but the infrastructure isn't designed to handle it.
You can easily speculate on why such a situation exists, I doubt very much that there is any political will from any mainstream party to propose any radical solution to the problem however.
