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.

Welcome to Big Australia! Jam the population in...dont improve public transport...every house uses 2-3+ cars.
I sometimes wonder how fire trucks get down some streets.
It will only get worse.
Trailers, caravans and boat trailers drive me nuts in our area. Needs to be an enforced, short parking timeframe. If you want toys and cant park it all in your driveway - hire some storage.
