But I *have* to park on the footpath directly outside the place I’m trying to get to. Otherwise I’d have to park somewhere else, and walk to where I’m going, and that’d be dangerous, with all the cars parked up on the footpaths.
… Without their hi-viz
Probably.
I see this was published by the [DCC Women’s committee](https://councilmeetings.dublincity.ie/mgCommitteeDetails.aspx?ID=354), which is a group of councillors.
Instead of hanging harmless signs as reminders, **why not go ahead and tackle the problem in the council that you’re already sitting on?**
Great, now let’s start supergluing huge copies to their bonnets
We should just build old people with trolley lanes everywhere.
53 is the reg… NCT must be a bastard
If you park your entire car on a footpath, you are a cunt.
There are probably many legal issues blocking this, but I’d love it if there was a Garda app. In the app you could photograph a car parked like this and submit it to them. They could review, and then issue fines in the post to the owners. If they don’t pay the fines, penalty points.

This is the same council that [turns a blind eye to footpath parking](https://dublininquirer.com/2023/09/20/secret-rules-and-informal-agreements-raise-questions-of-fairness-and-hamper-effectiveness-of-parking-enforcement-in-the-city/) in some streets. I mean what the actual fuck.

And the guards posted this today!
The “old” woman in the drawing looks about 45.
There should be stinger strips on the kerbstones where there are double yellow lines. A couple of flat tyres would soon stop them.
