Collected my daughter from school, and as per normal., cars are packed where they shouldnt be

Anyways

i couldnt believe it, when this old git... not only parked on the path way, but it was at an weird angle.. no way i could fit the pushchair thru this tiny gap.. i said can you move it... he looked at me like i was an idiot... i basically had a right go and made a bit of a show of myself... in the end i had to walk around the car because he wouldnt move...

informed the school about this before but they dont give 2 hoots.. what will it take for them to do something about it, the way its going a child could be knocked down, all because a parent cant be arsed to walk for a few mins...

No you didn't over react, it's illegal to obstruct a pathway I think, you should have threatened to call the police!

No not at all. Parking on pavements winds me up too

what got me angry, is he didnt say anything while i was shouting! weirdo x

Maybe you scared him

Didnt think about that lol.... ah well he better not do it again when im about... none of the other mums would say anything, im normally not the type to, but that really got my goat xx

Good for you for saying something. He probably knew he was in the wrong and couldn't say anything to defend himself x

Marie, this happens all the time in my area, i get so peed off because i cant get past on the path and have to go on the main road with the pram. If i ever see anyone getting in their car I always point it out, its really not on at all

no I would have done the same!!! x x

No you did not over react. Its the same at our school and it drives me nuts!!! The thing that annoys me is its other parents who do this so surely they should understand what its like crossing the road with children/pushchairs!!!

There are bylaws for this exact problem! If your school doesn't take you seriously..perhaps contacting the local police to enforce this. School zones are where most accidents happen due to negligent parking and assholes who are too lazy to walk 3 meters. This is one of my biggest pet peeves!

nope you didnt over react. maybe contact the council and say you've informed the school on many occasions.

I live opposite a primary school and people always do this. The school have been in touch with the police and they keep sending PCSOs at the end of the school day to give people parking tickets

Cheers ladies, i will be taking this further,xx

I would have tried my hardest to get the pram past and if this meant scratching his then..oh well

It really isn't on though!!

xx

Good on you! People need telling.

He didnt move his car, but hopefully he will think twice next time x

I live on a road with a school at the end too and it drives me nuts, people parking dangerouisly, people letting their kids roam round the road, its hard to get around with a buggy or a car for all the chaos and i hate it. So good for you

arghhhh i hate this too xx
