Nor has the person who lives nearby, who's disabled, a preferential right to park there. Any disabled person is lawfully entitled to park there. As long as they display a relevant disabled parking permit.

Anyone has the lawful right to park on any public highway, as long as they adhere to parking regulations.

No one has any legal right to park outside their house, if that house is in a public street.

Perhaps those who go about causing criminal damage should sod off, and go and buy a house with a private drive.

Either that, or stay, and get electronically tagged.

In which case they might consider buying a hoodie, and risk getting a nice big hug from David Cameron, the next time he's visiting the area.

The one with the disabled bay is used to park the tyre slashers car he dosn't drive & she's not disabled.
As for 5 bays, there are only 3 houses facing that bay, the car that had its tyre done was not parked in any of those bays, but at the top of Timber St, where it meets up with Hill St.
