Pavement parking Ban.

[itsallthedramaMickiloveit]

How would you be affected if there was a blanket ban on all pavement parking.

I'm not just talking about the inability to get a pram or wheelchair passed but a complete ban on any car on the pavement at all.

Pavement parking is illegal

Only in London.

I cannot disagree with you there but this is not the issue we are discussing here. A bit part of the issue in our city is large work vehicles being parked in residential streets as companies no longer provide parking on their premises. But you are not familiar with the ins and outs of where I live so it may be difficult to understand the issues
That is not to say as a community we are not fighting for improvements. In the mean time majority of the residents try to do this best they can. Not everyone is an arsehole when parking etc

No they really really don't. Because if they're not breaking the law. They don't have a problem.

You keep attempting to fall back on the sane weak argument: ‘it’s not illegal so sod everybody else’. That is because all of your other arguments have failed. Keep on parroting!

Haha the SAME weak argument. I can’t say that your argument is sane (my typo).

Actually yeah I am interested in thoughts but you havent actually added anything of value other than being pretty nasty TBH. If there was a quick solution then great but I am yet to hear anything useful on here.

It's not a weak argument. It's fact.

And as your rebutted have been nothing short of hilarious I have absolutely no need to progress on my stance.

In all honesty I don't expect any reasonable solutions on here, the so called experts at the council havent come up with anything useful other than building more and more properties without allocated parking and saying they are suggesting to potential buyers to get buses or trains rather than cars.

Your repeated references to your ownership of the not-quite-pavement outside your house are the epitome of whataboutery and actually are not relevant to the thread, which is about public pavements being blocked by selfishly-parked cars

I was talking about various other situations.

Your the epitome of what they say about people who assume. Poor sap.

*you’re

If there was a quick solution then great but I am yet to hear anything useful on here.

There is a quick solution. Don’t block the road with cars. That you don’t like it doesn’t mean that it won’t work.

Your the epitome of what they say about people who assume. Poor sap.

The personal insult: the last refuge of the person losing the argument.

So where are the cars going?

And as your rebutted have been nothing short of hilarious I have absolutely no need to progress on my stance.

Eh?

This isn't an argument. You've not put anything forward. At all. Not once.

You think your swooning and Simpsons think of the disabled Is enough of a solution. It's not.

I don't need to change what I'm saying. Because you haven't given me any reason to.

So where are the cars going?

To somewhere their owners can park them without blocking pavements. You’ve been given this message repeatedly. Or will you refuse to entertain the notion that blocking pavements with cars is selfish until I tell you the exact grid reference at which all those cars should be parked?

I know. How about we make your local council dig every house an individual basement car park with a lift and a 24 hour attendant? Free of charge, of course. Although you’d probably still be moaning and complaining that everybody else is being unreasonable.

The personal insult: the last refuge of the person losing the argument

That’s rich coming from someone who reckoned someone who didn’t agree with them had “taken against them”.

You think your swooning and Simpsons think of the disabled Is enough of a solution. It's not.

I was the reincarnation of Mrs Thatcher a few pages back. Make your mind up! How does one swoon in print, by the way?

To somewhere their owners can park them without blocking pavements.

No. That's not an option for many.

That’s rich coming from someone who reckoned someone who didn’t agree with them had “taken against them”.

It was evidence-based after you put forward your view that ‘all the silliness was coming from one source’: the person who disagreed with you, I.e. me. I thought you were going to curb your insulting posts habit? That didn’t last long.

This isn't an argument.

Well, viewed objectively it hasn’t been much of an argument, no. The pro-pavement parking lobby have nothing beyond ‘what about me, I’m a special case’, ‘I’ll do what I want and to hell with everyone else’ and ‘ghost towns end of motor industry house price crash ghost towns apocalypse’.

No. That's not an option for many.

Then don’t live somewhere with no parking if you are dependent on a car. Basic logic.

Again. No. If someone can afford to live in a place suitable for them then they can. They don't have the issue.

If you are so poor as to be extremely restricted in your choice of where to live, how can you afford to own and run a car?

Are you suggesting that everyone who blocks pavements with cars does do because they are in poverty? Think hard before you answer.

Because for many their car is tied to their employment. No car no money.

No. But if they are not breaking the law then nothing to be done.
