Vehicle belongs to corner house in Uphill opposite 2 Heyford Close. Owners name is Rob. He was in a band called the A Tees.

I have seen him driving multiple occasions it and told him not to park there. His response was "Fuck off and mind your own business, what are you gonna do, arrest me? you cunt!" (Apologies for swearing, but it is an exact quote).

Please remove this vehicle.

  • This issue is still ongoing the grass verge is being destroyed by car CY22 DYD. Which I have reported to the council and police as criminal damage.

    Police have said council have full authority to issue tickets for illegal parking. Not just for yellow lines like they claim but any parking offence outlined in the highways act which includes: 1. parking partially on a footway or verge 2. parking opposite or within 10m of a bust stop 3. parking opposite or within 10m of a junction 4. parking opposing traffic flow without aditional red reflectors fitted to front of vehicle 5. parking on a highway in fog without parking lights on

    All of these offences have been committed by this vehicle.

    The police have written to the council to remind them of their powers of which I have a copy.
