Annoying parking on your street can be infuriating, especially if it blocks your car in or restricts access to your house. 

While it's a frustration for people who have a driveway, save a thought for people who have to engage in a 'free for all' on the street for parking. 

However, other things to consider are that by people parking illegally, it could be blocking people in wheelchairs, or putting other drivers in danger. 

Using the website Fix My Street, people can note down people's parking, as well as other inconveniences in their street, like dangerous potholes.

Using Fix My Street, we have noted five examples of bad and illegal parking on the streets of Darlington recently. 

Of course, we have blurred the number plates of the cars - but you can still see the vehicles involved.

Here is what we found: 

Peel Street

The Northern Echo:

On Fix My Street, one person complained: "Not only is it illegally parked and blocking in at least two other cars in the car park, but it is parked on a pathway/disabled access as it's the only part of the curb that lowers for wheelchairs and mobility scooters."

West Auckland Road

The Northern Echo:

This person has caught multiple cars on West Auckland Road, which impacts people who are trying to see over the crossing, both drivers and pedestrians. 

On Fix My Street, the person complaining highlighted: "Cars parked on white zigzag lines by traffic light pedestrian crossing causing a hazard to road users on the road and adjoining road. Free, designated parking is available 100 yards along the road.

"The problem is getting worse, especially on weekends and evenings."

West Auckland Road (again)

The Northern Echo:

We don't know whether this is the same person who complained - but a car was caught in exactly the same place, with the prson on Fix My Street saying: "Causing hazard to other road users. Legal parking is available 100 meters away on the same road."

Haughton Road

The Northern Echo:

At the back end of last year, this person on Fix My Street caught this van on the double yellow line. While it might not be the biggest thing ever - it was near a junction, which could have put other drivers in danger.

The person on Fix My Street said: "White van parking on double yellow lines close by the junction with Haughton Road."

Atherstone Way

The Northern Echo:

This one seems like an ongoing issue for the person complaining on Fox My Street - who saw them not happy with the car in question - which blocks access to garages.

The person on Fix My Street said: "This has been going on for months, he’s blocking access to garages and if an ambulance needs access they are blocked too."
