People who wish to reverse park on busy streets should be made to repeat the reverse parking section of the driving test every time they renew their license. For goodness sake, if you really don’t want to walk 20 metres, then practise parking so that it takes less than 10 minutes!

So on Friday night the parents were about to go to bed and looked out their bedroom window. They saw a car parked across our street. Diagonally. Blocking all traffic.
