Today’s Traffic Hooligan is BHH062EC

By

This vehicle, registration number: BHH062EC, was spotted in 5 Ways Spar on 16/11/2013 at around 04:08 pm. From the alignment of the front tyres I can only conclude that the driver of this vehicle is a DOUBLE hooligan. WHY? He must have turned RIGHT into this disabled parking which means that he came in to this parking AGAINST the flow of traffic.

Today’s Traffic Hooligan is CJR120EC

By

This vehicle, registration number: CJR120EC, was spotted in Newton Park Spar/Tops on 26/09/2013 at around 02:00 pm. Now I believe from a bystander that 'Johan' alighted from this vehicle wearing a large cast. Obviously the pain must have been too terrible to bear as it looks as though he just missed parking inside the Tops. I suggest that next time you go to Dischem for your painkillers Johan. And, yes, I did check to see if Johan had a disabled sticker, which he didn't. Originally … [Read more...] about Today’s Traffic Hooligan is CJR120EC

Today’s Traffic Hooligan is Motocross Biker Destroying Parsons Hill Park

By

This Motocross Biker Destroying Parsons Hill Park, was spotted in the Parsons Hill Park on 21/09/2013 at around 12:40 pm. In the Parsons Hill Park we have birds nesting and children playing. This idiot thinks that it is his right to ride up and down a public space with no regard to residents and animal life. To make matters worse when he realised that he may become the target of a lynch mob when all the residents came out, as they were disturbed by the noise, he hightailed it to the … [Read more...] about Today’s Traffic Hooligan is Motocross Biker Destroying Parsons Hill Park

Today’s Traffic Hooligan is FCP534EC

By

This vehicle, registration number: FCP534EC, was spotted in Edward Street, Richmond Hill on 14/08/2013 at around 10:00 am. This driver should pay a visit to SpecSavers for an eye test. Parking on a yellow line, blocking a garage 2m away without noticing the problem, proves the severity of the vision problem - this is happening regularly - therefore the legality of the driver's license may also be at issue.
