How can this idiot possibly imagine her parking isn't awkward?

According to the Highway Code a car shouldn't be parked within 10m of a junction. This one isn't parked one metre away..

This is getting tedious, but it does look like we have a problem here.

These drivers are either unaware of The Highway Code or simply lazy, ignorant and inconsiderate. Unless they are actually overtaking a slower vehicle, they should be driving in the left hand lane.

16/03 - Today I had to drive from MIlton Keynes to West London. Rather terrifyingly, I came to myself at the Aylesbury A41 junction of the M25 with no memory of anything since the Hemel junction... I can't have been actually asleep as I managed to navigate a motorway junction and about 9 miles of stop-start traffic, but it freaked me out no end. Thus, I followed the Highway Code's advice for such circumstances: 1 - slap yourself around the face repeatedly, 2 - turn the radio up very loudly, 3 - leave motorway and park in a conveniently located field, 4 - throw bottle of water in face, 5 - pace around, take a photograph, 6 - re-enter car, put on best sing-along playlist, and chain-eat sugary sweets until reach intended destination.

This is the photograph I took in the the field.

It is a well known fact that if you put your hazard lights on, you are legally allowed to park on double-yellow lines.

By the way, check out that demolition in the background!

The driver of the grey 4x4 obviously agreed with my assertion that the black car should have been in lane 1, and didn't see why he/she should have to traverse three lanes and back again to pass. So he/she passed on the inside instead, a maneouvre which would potentially land this driver with a ticket were it witnessed by a police officer.

I have obscured the registration number of the grey vehicle, as I feel that the driver of the black vehicle is the one most in the wrong. Had he/she been in the correct lane then nobody else would need (nor be able) to undertake them.

(See picture 1)..

Give priority to vehicles from opposite direction

I had tagged this "Illegal Parking" but they get away with it on the "essential loading and unloading" clause in Highway Code Rule 246.

In a roadster?

Not too challenging because (a) they drive on the proper side of the road here and (2) I've driven here before, albeit 10 years ago.

Maybe I should brush up on The Highway Code and figure out what all those funny yellow lines mean.

Revising for my theory test (I passed).

The drivers at the end of Brunstane Road (North and South) and on Milton Road really follow the rules of a 'yellow box junction', wouldn't you agree?
