Car Parking
Hi, I went a council car park but there was no spaces left, so I parked to the side in front of some other cars, I left room for enough space for the other cars to pass, a car parking attendant said that I was commiting an offence by blocking the other cars in, I was still in my car if the owners had come back I would have moved to let them out, I was just waiting for an empty space. I dont see what the problem was.

Car parks are laid out so that everybody using them can get in and out of the spaces without too much trouble. If there is no room in the designated spaces you must find somewhere else. The idea that "There's nowhere for me to park legally so I'll leave my car here" is why so many people receive parking tickets and then moan about it.
