Been sent a questionnaire about parking and possible restrictions. Asks some daft questions that I don't have enough information to answer. 'If a controlled parking zone is introduced, what days should the hours of control apply' (mark one box per row). There are seven boxes with three options on each - no idea whether they want me to say which seven out of the possible 21 permutations I prefer, or choose my favourite, or what.
They also ask whether I would like workers' permits, so people who work in our town could park on-street with the same rights as residents. They only offer 'yes/no' not 'I don't know' but don't explain how many parked cars are thought to belong to local workers rather than shoppers or commuters, or what the impact will be on local workers if they can't park on residential roads, or what alternatives are available. So after pondering I've said 'no' but put 'I don't have enough information' in the comments box.
Gaah. The council must send out loads of these questionnaires, why on earth haven't they asked someone who understands logic to check them?

AIBU?
to be mildly irritated at bad survey design and wonder why my council didn't ask someone with some common sense to review their survey?
