IT IS high time the authorities took a stand and clamped down on illegal parking.
The number of cars I see every day parking with two wheels on the road and two on the pavement, completely ignoring double yellow lines, astounds me.
Some even park the car completely on the pavement itself.
Police cars drive by and take no notice at all.
The cars not only cause problems for other traffic, but also pedestrians, especially those with prams or wheelchairs.
This can only be put down to the ignorance, laziness and the careless attitude of the drivers.
The highway code has no meaning these days it would seem.
The situation is getting worse and worse.
If traffic regulations were enforced, the amount raised in fines would run into hundreds, if not thousands, of pounds each day.
Much needed extra revenue for the council to enable them to paint more yellow lines.
