Government crack down on parking

[Drago]

Thinking about parking on double yellow lines? Well, think again if you're trying it in Bradford, where the Government are trialling extreme measures to combat the problem.

Silly place to park

Silly way to drive

Looks like what happens when an immovable knob-head meets an unstoppable cock-womble

Double Yellow, on the Pavement and blocking a cycle lane

Council drivers do that!

Others do it to get to the cash machines, without leaving "their car". They might get wet.

Broke down?
Nobber on phone so didn't see it.

Hardly a major crash..unless it' your Audi lol

Other sources are saying the car had stopped to allow someone to nip into the shop. It would have been a rotten piece of bad luck if it had broken down while the passenger was in the shop.

And if it had broken down, why were the children still in the car, and why had it stopped on a cycle lane?

Its a clear case of chump v nobber. Case closed, M'Lud.

Just as well someone wasn't cycling in the cycle lane

Aye, parked on by a Nissan and rammed by an Audi. That'd be a bad day for someone.

It's absolutely terrifying what you can hire for a few days if you've got lots of cash. Deal some drugs and splash the lot on a super car for the weekend, no matter how young or inexperienced you are.

To be fair, he could have been doing 100+ miles an hour in a Micra.

It'd not have the "street cred".

Normal for round there I'm afraid. It's local to me and they race round in hired cars; yes, they've trackers but seem to ignore them.

And for parking on double yellows in a cycle lane: that's typical behaviour in Bradford/Huddersfield/Leeds.

You may then appreciate what I was greeted with, at the entrance to our estate, yesterday morning

A customised Vauxhall Zafira Mk1 - complete with vents in the bonnet and loud exhaust !!!

The driver's intention of impressing me with his loud and stupid antics, had the opposite effect and nearly had me fall from the bike, as I pointed and laughed at him
