Parking on pavements, verges or footpaths to be made an offence in England.

Vehicles parking on pavements, verges or footpaths, – even on roads with no markings, invariably place pedestrians at risk by forcing them onto the road. This is further exacerbated for wheelchair users and parents using pushchairs etc. I feel that this is an increasingly common behaviour which will eventually result in an increasing death and injury toll. In this age of improving Health & Safety legislation this type of behaviour is a travesty.
