Residents are fuming with "shameless" drivers for brazen pavement parking on a busy street.
Hayden Laverick has shared a picture of two cars almost completely blocking the footpath in Rotherham Road, Coventry.
He blasted the drivers as "inconsiderate", CoventryLive reports.
The Highway Code says drivers outside London "should not" park on the pavement, while motorists in the capital "must not".
A Coventry resident is furious at drivers parking on the pavement in his neighbourhood. Hayden Laverick has shared a photo of two cars parked on the footpath in Rotherham Road, Holbrooks.
It shows the body of the cars positioned on the pavement leaving, in the worst-affected areas, barely a metre-wide gap between the garden walls and the front of the cars.
Anyone in a wheelchair, mobility scooter or pushing a stroller would likely have to have to step into the road to get around the cars obstructing the footpath. Hayden is furious about the situation and lashed out at the "inconsiderate" actions of drivers.
Other residents also hit out at the drivers responsible. On the Facebook post, one user commented: "Shameless people no respect for others."
Another added: "No way I could get past on my mobility scooter." One resident said: "Yes I have to walk in the road when I am going to work!!"
Meanwhile, one user wrote: "Extremely frustrating! For wheelchairs pushchairs pedestrians etc..." This is not the first time Coventry residents have lashed out at nuisance parking and cars parked on pavements.
In October, a Coventry resident complained about neighbours parking on the pavement outside his home in Binley everyday. A photo, taken by the resident, showed a car parked with all four wheels on the pavement covering its entire width.
And a few weeks earlier, a resident snapped a photo of three cars parked on a footpath next to each other. He said neighbours with pushchairs were forced to walk on the road as the vehicles obstructed the footpath.
The Highway Code rule 244 states that drivers outside London 'should not' park on the pavement, rather than 'must not', which means it is only advice that is not backed up by any legislation.
However, it is illegal to drive on the pavement but this is difficult for police to enforce - unless they actually see the driver driving on to a public footpath. for police to enforce. If officers do not see this in action, they have no direct proof that the car was driven on the pavement.
In theory, the car could have been lifted into place. Outside London, it is the responsibility of local councils to clamp down on pavement parkers - and they do have the power to impose a fine.
