At least once per week I have to pass a council van that parks on some zig zags near a busy zebra crossing, totally obscuring a driver's view of the crossing and its approach. It angers me every time, as while I am careful enough to slow right down (this is when I am driving) so I can stop if anybody is crossing, I know one day a less careful driver won't and somebody will get hurt. On this road, somebody has already been seriously hurt when they walked out between parked cars.
I am not a confrontational person, although about 2 or 3 weeks ago when I saw them and it was quiet I sounded my horn and pointed at the zig zags, obviously they didn't understand or didn't care.
Today I memorised the registration plate: is it worth reporting to the council or just leave it? I don't want to be a moaner, and I don't want somebody to lose their job, but what if I read a story next week about a child being knocked over. Or am I just taking my hatred of the council out on this one driver?
