F£&%ing taxi drivers.
Stopping at Sainsburys for a few supplies- a taxi parks itself in the bike bay across the road from the store, leaving me on the double yellows. This followed-
"Can you read mate"
?
Points down- "Solo Motorcycles only"
"Yeah but it's Sunday"
"So I have park on double yellows then?"
"It doesn't matter it's Sunday".
It really p*sses me off- if a passing traffic warden passed, I'd be done for it- regardless of what day it is. Does the Solo Motorcycles Only sign say "Mon-Sat" only? NO!
You could argue that there are 2 bike bays in Surbiton, only the other one is always full of pizza scooters.
Would he be done for it? No. Apparently the councila can't enforce bike bays as there's no ticket cost for bikes parking. Which goes to show it's tax status rather than keeping things fair for everyone.
If I could have gotten away with it, I'd have damaed his taxi. The c**t.
