What about when people park in the pavements the gap then becomes very narrow does it?

Do they park on the pavements with you? Absolutely, but it's simply for lack of room There's lack of space. There's no right then there has to be a designated place to you know because if no I hear people beeping to get out because they're you know Locked in with two cars, you know who think that they've left enough room of course I do have views about people parking in the pavement because I'm visually impaired, right This is quite a Yes And also in addition if there are people double parking of course you can't see if you're trying to cross the roads You're coming out and you're just double parked constantly we've noticed it Yeah, and but silly things like I was just saying I was parked where the black car was there And somebody double parked me instead of going over the bin I was a half an hour beat with the horn for somebody to come out if there's a double yellow line You don't park there. There's a pavement. You don't park on a pavement because that's clearly primarily for you know Pedestrians, but lots of people are doing it. I know do you think it should be legislation?
