The pavement is for pedestrians?

This has bothered me for a while but complete lack of sleep deprivation has turned me into a raging bull.

I don't drive (medical condition so 'learn to drive' wouldn't be the best advice) and so walk a lot.

Now, I have sympathy that parking your car is sometimes limited and that a lot of the time you need to park in awkward places and car slightly on the curb. However, it sends me into a rage when inconsiderate cockwombles park near enough their entire car on the path meaning you can barely squeeze by.

I can't get my pushchair past them most of the time which is annoying, on quieter roads I do just go on the road around it swearing or slightly on the persons front lawn (not ideal I know but needs must) but today I was walking down a busy road with a wall and/or spiky bushes on the other side and several people had parked this way. I was on he verge of writing a note, they made me that mad I was going to be one of those people and write a bloody NOTE!!! Instead I'm writing an aggressive post on mumsnet to vent.

AIBU to think that the pavement is for pedestrians?

Came back from the park this morning to find two builders' 4x4s parked on the pavement. We had to walk in the road to proceed down the road. Arrrrrgh why are people so selfish?!

The driveways on my road are only big enough for one car so some twats think it's okay to park the second car so that it juts out and completely blocks the pavement. Apparently their right to park a second car right at their house supercedes the right of other residents not to have to walk out in traffic or push buggies or wheelchairs out on the road.

Selfish knobs.
