NEWTON
AREAS PAVEMENT PARKERS:
("The Avenue" - Newton Abbot - near Balls Corner.)
Are they bovvered? Clearly not - but these pavement
parkers are a real nuisance,
as well as being selfish and inconsiderate these people are endangering the
lives of others -
in particular cyclists who may be using the cycleway or the road alongside.
INCIDENTALLY THESE PHOTOS ARE NOT PART OF A STAKE OUT, MERELY
ODD SHOTS TAKEN WHILE PASSING THE AREA -OFTEN ON A SUNDAY LUNCHTIME.
IT'S EITHER A COINCIDENCE THAT THERE ALWAYS SEEMS TO BE VEHICLE THERE OR EVIDENCE
OF A MUCH MORE GENERAL PROBLEM.

I still can't work this one out. The guys were actually checking out the
cycle lane counter, but parked the DCC 4x4 on the track despite the available
layby space - is it a 4x4 thing?? |

This
bit of precision parking blocks the cycleway, footway, obstructs the road
junction and covers the tactile paving for the visually impaired.
