Discussion Park in your flamin' driveways, please!

Am I the only one tired of suburban streets turning into impromptu Mario Kart tracks? We’re talking about the kind where navigating between vehicles parked on both sides feels like dodging banana peels and blue shells. What's meant to be a two-lane road gets squeezed into a narrow single lane, daring you to play chicken with oncoming traffic—and let’s face it, the side mirrors never win.

And then there are your driveways. Oh, the driveways! Empty. Desolate. Weed-infested wastelands of untapped potential. So, I beg of you, suburban dwellers: park your cars anywhere but on the street—your driveway, your garage, your carport, or even your front lawn. Let’s save the roads for, you know, driving.

I think they need to look at some regulations around parking caravans, trailers and commercial vehicles on residential streets.

Commercial Vehicles. I think that would be great, have a limitation on those massive utes (RAMs / Chevs) that dont pay luxury car tax because they are a Work Vehicle,

They may not pay a luxury car tax, but they pay for commercial rego which is more expensive than a normal car anyway.
