Parking and crashes

4°C, grey and E wind.


News story: BBC– This was broadcast on TV this morning. What it doesn’t say in the written article what is is shown clearly in the TV report. This family live in a house facing a long sweeping bend in the road, but on the corner of a road junction. Apparently they have had four parked cars wrecked by joy-riders loosing control on the bend in the road over the last few years.

See the map for the presumed location. My question is this- the cars that were wrecked were parked on the raod as shown in my map? In the UK it’s illegal to park within 15 metres of a road junction, so is the victim’s case affected by the fact that they habitually park in a dangerous place?
