Hi
We had a lovely evening of weather here in Belfast and i decided to go a walk with 2 of my daughters. (1 & 5yrs) The 1 year old was in a sort of 3 wheel trike thing that dad pushes obviously.
When walking there were a few occasions when i had to go onto the road because cars were parked with 2 wheels up on the footway making the footway too narrow for this little trike and i didnt want to run the risk of scraping a car. This had the obvious dangers etc and it got my thinking...... Is it legal to park like this??? I fully understand why it has to be done because of narrow streets etc and cars being a whole lot wider than they were when the roads/footways were constructed etc etc.
So is it legal to park with 2 wheels on the footway????
