of the reason is that multiple occupation houses have as many as 5 car
owners living in them. The wardens pay no attention. I have seen them walk
past cars that are parked on yellow lines, and when you call Control Plus
to tell them of breaches in residential roads, they never respond by
sending a warden to ticket the offender.
Unless there is strict enforcement, including American-style 'towing away'
(and we shall soon be paying to use the few residential spaces there are)
nothing will change.
