Monakot - totally agree with you.
We normally park our car on the driveway, but when people are too lazy to park a little further away from destination and block our driveway, it means we can't use the driveway, which we always try to do, to free up spaces on the road.
It's just ignorance. I have given up asking people nicely, as it tends to lead to a stream of indignance and bad language.
I would love our road to be permit controlled, and force those people who park in the road, then go off on a train to London to work to go. There is a huge car park down near the sorting office - they should use it.
