    This is great, but let’s be honest it should be Scotland wide. Where I live this is ridiculously common, they get half the car or more on the pavement, stick on their hazard lights and seem to think that’s OK.

    One more thing, the fine isn’t high enough in my opinion. There will still be people that’ll carry on parking like this because they justify it somehow. Looking at you Aberdeen Range Rover mob.

      Where do you see people only half on? They alway appear to me to take as much of the pavement as they can. Wouldn’t want pedestrians to be able to use it.

      Disclaimer: could be illegal where you are and definitely if you damage anything

      Battery powered impact driver and a scissor jack.

      Jack the front or back end up, push it over toward the street, pick up the Jack’s and do the same on the other end.

      Walk it to the street.

      If you want to go scorched earth, Sawzalls and acetylene torches to cut the car along the pavement. This one will probably draw more attention from police.
