I'm quite shaken up by a run in today - the kids' primary school is on a very little road and the pavements are mostly quite narrow to start with, and it's a very small area between CPZs, one of which was recently extended, meaning parking near the school is tighter. This isn't a school with a good reputation and I don't believe many parents actually live so far that they need to drive to school at all.
There is very little space even for everyone to walk to and from the school there really, and selfish car driving and parking really makes it feel a lot worse, and sometimes very unsafe (I've actually seen someone partly mount the pavement and move along it when I was actually on it with one of the kids, and that was in icy weather too).
Anyway, today I said something, and when we came out of the playground with my older son, the woman driving the car had moved a little further down the road, still pulled up on the pavement on the other side, and waited so that she and her husband could shout insults at me - two adults with a car to one with just my two children.
They also drove across and carried out shouting stuff out of the window at me further away from the school.
