Had a sore foot over the weekend and had to hobble about. Can confirm I didn’t beat the green man on more than one occasion.

Pavement parking 'a daily problem' as officials push ahead with ban in c/fuckcars@lemmy.world

When they banned pavement parking round here, the drivers just all parked on the narrow roads and now we have people driving on the pavements instead.

Or the classic narrow pass on the approach to a red light where I’m simply going to filter past away.

They did similar round here. Now people park on the road and, as a result people drive their cars on the pavement. Would be nice if they actually slowed down while doing so, mind.
