Of course he's parked adjacent to a parking bay, but decided to just dump it in the cycle lane instead. He was getting out when I passed, and said "I'll just be two seconds" when I told him to move it. Well you've already obstructed me, cunt.

(c)on a footway,
is guilty of an offence.
(2)A person shall not be convicted of an offence under this section in respect of a vehicle if he proves to the satisfaction of the court—
