PaveParker of the Week! SW55 KWM

This weeks laurels go to the driver of Aberdeen Car Kia Picanto 1.0 GS reg. SW55KWM



We spotted this exemplary parking on the city's historic Hardgate the other day. What we particularly enjoy about this display of How-to-PavePark is the consideration show by the altruistic driver of this Aberdeen Car. Noting that the area is characterised by sheltered housing and nursing homes, our philanthropic PaveParker has made sure to leave just enough room for the elderly residents to squeeze between the car and the fence.

That is, of course, providing that the elderly people can be trusted to stick to the example set out in the instructive sign and walk one in front of the other in a line, as illustrated.

One in front of the other, please.

Our humanity-loving driver of this PaveParked Aberdeen Car has even allowed the elderly people a little bit more room by "flipping the wingmirror". Cool! We have to admit, though, perhaps there's just a hint of selfishness in this. It's possible that the driver was afraid that the sticks and walking frames of the passing elderly people might scratch this nice wee car; thus rendering it less nice. We congratulate the driver's foresight and planning.

Flipped.

SnowParking Roundup

Now that the festive season's over, and the snow and ice have cleared, it's time to take a moment to find out what lessons the drivers of Aberdeen Cars can learn from weather like this. I bet the clever entrepreneurs of Aberdeen can turn this to their advantage!

Parking Restrictions. Frozen! Hoora!

PaveParking is of course something that the drivers of Aberdeen Cars do as a matter of course anyway. Particularly in the upscale West End of the city. However, during the winter months, the clever PaveParkers of the West End provide an extra benefit by actually saving our hard-pressed council precious funds. You see, the PaveParkers actually prevent the gritting and clearing of pavements all over that prestigious district. This is People Power. This is the Big Society: We don't want or need the pavements to be gritted, so we use the means at our disposal to prevent it.

Indeed, why should our council devote precious resources to subsidising the unimportant feckless road-tax-dogding pestestrians? These freeloaders infuriate us with their refusal to contribute to economic growth and pay their way; pay their share with road tax, petrol tax, extra VAT, parking charges, and all the rest. These pestestrians are unimportant, they do not deserve our subsidy. If they were important, they'd be able to afford a nice car, and wouldn't need to waste the council's money on having the pavement gritted, or indeed maintained in any way.

The clever PaveParkers of Aberdeen Cars are doing us all a favour by showing these pestestrians just where they stand in the socioeconomic pecking order, and by freeing up precious roadspace so that the infinitely more important, hard-pressed, busy, clever and responsible motorists can enjoy the benefits of better traffic flow, which, as everyone knows, is the predominant source of economic growth and prosperity.

So, PaveParking is to be encouraged whenever possible. But those new to PaveParking mustn't get carried away. Please don't go too far, the pestestrians might "CarriageWalk".

Pavement? What Pavement?

If the snow conceals the double yellow lines, that means you can park wherever you like. Close to junctions, on the zig-zags, wherever. The No Parking signs don't count when there's snow on the ground. Obviously.

So. Let's look forward to more snow during the remainder of the winter. We just love the parking free-for-all which it implies for the drivers of Aberdeen Cars.
