Apparently White Van Man really doesn't like it if you respond to his pavement and double yellow lines parking with 'what if I had a wheelchair?'

(I could barely squeeze past and I am about as slender as you can get)

@pwaring I've taken to walking slowly down the middle of the road in these cases.

@pwaring I'm not surprised sadly. I feel I've completely failed to advocate for disabled people, because every response is a variation of "you can get past, so what's your problem?". Motor vehicles seem to destroy empathy, at least on the face of it. Maybe they feel bad after they've thought about it for a bit, although their behaviour doesn't change.
