We've long since enjoyed the 'You Park Like a C***' Twitter account. It's pretty self-explanatory...they upload all the best (worst) snaps of drivers parked like...well, you get the idea. We're enjoying it even more since the account name was changed to 'You Party Like a C***'... I wonder who that could be aimed at?

They've got stickers too if you really want to let someone know how dangerous and inconsiderate their parking is. That's exactly what Steve did...
Bike lane driver YPLAC (Lollercake/Twitter)

"One sticker down, 499 to go..." he captioned his pics of this van driver making use of that lovely segregated car park on the side of the road...

Steve said he "even waited around for a minute in case it was a delivery driver (who I have some degree of sympathy for at this time of year). Nope, it's just abandoned there."

And just like that the interest in the stickers started to roll in, while others shared stories of placing a couple on the morning commute...

What a load of old... [insert noun of choice].

Irrespective of rules re fairy-cycle lanes, and bearing in mind the
accepted constriction and layout of an urban carriageway, where would
you *expect* a delivery van to be stopped when making a delivery (or
even when broken down)?

[A] Against the kerb?

[B] On the crown of the road, with offside and nearside wheels
equidistant from the white line?

Please give reasoned and logical arguments in favour of your answer.

Can we get some "YDLAC" stickers too? For when you catch up to them at the lights.

It's not clear from Steve's photos, but FYI there is in fact a load of dedicated parking spaces (that don't block the cycle lane) literally metres away: https://goo.gl/maps/5mps1v1iuAfd49R98 (link is external)

Walk? Are you mad?
That doesn't feature in white van man mentality, I once saw a white transit parked on double yellow lines whilst loading, unfortunately I was in my car at the time so could not take a photo, the double yellow lines ended in line with the rear of their vehicle and with no other cars about they would only have had to park one vehicle length further away to be legal!
