Good Luck.
Many people England are angry that drivers park their cars the pavements. Cars that are the pavement block people walking safely the street. They have to walk the road to get the cars. The charity the blind, Guide Dogs, said blocking the pavement is "inconsiderate and dangerous". It said it's a lot more difficult blind people to walk the town if cars are their way. A spokesman for the charity told the BBC: "It can be frightening for anyone who is forced to step into a road because the pavement is blocked a van, car or other badly parked vehicle. Imagine you have to step a road where you can't see oncoming traffic."

A survey parking in Britain found that 70 per cent people want a ban parking on pavements. A town south London has already started a system to get drivers to park on the road or a proper car park. Any motorist who parks on the pavement gets a $115 fine. However, many people say the fines do not work. Local people say car owners ignore the fine and park where they want. People pushing their children baby cars and people wheelchairs are afraid to walk on busy roads where there is heavy traffic. One woman said there would soon be a very serious accident because a car parked on the pavement. She wants her town to be like London, which has strict rules pavement parking.
