More national than local, but how about a law requiring people to pull over if travelling below the speed limit and have more than five cars stuck behind them.
Fair point, and why not !

I’d add to that, also a recognised sign for “Sorry!” When I’ve done something silly.Fair point, and why not !
Doesn't help if you're in front!Flashing your lights as to blind the driver you're saying sorry to isn't it?
Not really a problem by mine as no one seems to stick to the speed limit but I think a law requiring everyone to drive at the speed limit would be irresponsible. It would be interesting though if everyone who wants cyclists taxed and insured, off the pavements also wants them doing 40mph on the relevant roads.More national than local, but how about a law requiring people to pull over if travelling below the speed limit and have more than five cars stuck behind them.

Ah, the 45 Everywhere Brigade. Don't you just love 'em
I wouldn’t include cyclists, for the simple reason that this simply doesn’t cause the same level of problem.
Given that a Tour De France winner averages 25mph including time trials, sprints and flying down mountains I seriously doubt most casual cyclists you encounter on the pavement are doing 20 mph.That's one thing I've never understood about cyclists; Why do they do 15-20 mph on pavements and footbridges, but less than 10 mph on main roads, in front of buses?

Have a look at a car doing 20mph and then try and imagine someone doing that on a bike on the pavement. You are basically saying that your average scally could do Liverpool to Manchester in an hour and a half on their daft fat wheeled mountain bike down the pavement. They couldn't.

Seriously mate, hardly anyone you are talking about is doing 15 to 20 mph on the pavement. If they were you would be reading about deaths every few days.Given that a Tour De France winner averages 25mph including time trials, sprints and flying down mountains I seriously doubt most casual cyclists you encounter on the pavement are doing 20 mph.

Absolutely no chance of 1. Being introduced where I live as the current mayoress would have to have walked thousands of miles over the last couple of decades. As for 2, I think we should have something similar to Japan and allow householder s to charge for parking outside our property. I'd be a millionaire by now. I do agree with your punishment for blocking driveway s thoughTwo from me; one because of my neighbours and one, just because it drives me up the wall...
1. If a family own more than 2 cars, and a driveway isn't available, then any excess of the 2 should be parked on the nearest car park, even if they claim it's half a mile away.
2. People parking in front of my house, or taking up more than one space on a car park (and no I don't give a flying f*** if you drive a Porsche, Audi, BMW, whatever) will be sentenced to fix their car without the help of a mechanic or a manual; once a trained mechanic has gone round and disassembled random parts of the car, and left them within a 10 mile radius. If the car isn' roadworthy after the fix, then it will be scrapped, with owners paying the mechanic who disassembled said car.

People parking in front of my house
Yes, I agree with you there on all points.I've got some supermarket ones..
- People must return shopping trolleys to the trolley parks after use.
- People should be banned from letting their children sit in the trolleys.
- People should be banned from letting their children eat things in a supermarket until said items have been paid for.
4. If you change your mind about purchasing an item you should return it to it's original shelf, not randomly deposit it on the nearest available surface. Those guilty of such an offence will be required to submit their homes to compulsory re-organisation e.g. shampoo to be stored in the oven, bread to be stored under the bed, DVDs in the shed etc.I've got some supermarket ones..

I like this.Drivers who park their car in a parent in a parent and child section without a child being present shall be forced to spend a day as a baby, wearing an adult size nappy and romper suit, with accompanying rattle and bonnet and shall only be allowed to eat baby food.
People who park in disabled parking when they are not permitted to shall spend a 24 hour period as the personal driver and valet of a genuine disabled person.
I like this.
Though under the first bit, I'd also include that "child" does not apply to university students doing their monthly "stock up" with mum/dad
