When will these blokes grow a brain cell and park their vans on potters lane, it stops the flow of traffic through Southover Highstreet and also blocks the view on the mini - roundabout, as well as this cars have to stop on the roundabout as there is no other waiting space.
They are parking illegally regardless, first of all parking to close to a roundabout causing obstruction, parked on double yellow lines and to close to a junction as well as restricting the flow of traffic.
They won;t get ticketed as they are standing by their vans all day. Hopefully they will read this or someone who lives nearer can talk to them as it is just pure stupidity.

Nearly as stupid as the people who park on the bend in Bell Lane, near the old Roche building. It forces people going up from the hollow on to the wrong side of the road as they approach a blind bend.
It's weird though - sometimes there'll be no cars there for days, then all of a sudden one day there will be loads.

Or any road on Nevill estate but I know this has already been discussed on this forum and lets be honest nothing is going to be done about it. As it can't be inforced.

In fairness, it's only people who park on the bends and the corners that cause problems on the Nevill, although the ones who park opposite bus stops are damned inconsiderate - all the traffic is blocked when the bus is at the stop.
I can't get over the reluctance of so many people to use their drives, tbh, or the numbers of cars some families have. My neighbours have 4, 2 of them never go anywhere and one has bindweed growing round the wheels. Those 2 occupy the garage and drive, so the other 2 are on the road. There's a 4x4 along the road taking up 2 parking spaces that never goes anywhere either - waste of road tax imo.
