    We are all familiar with Anti Social or forgetful parking, which blocks access to mobility tracks.

    I have pasted graphics below that can be used for an A5 leaflet or a business card to educate the forgetful parker. We may enjoy posting something quite rude, but sometimes  agentler approach can work better. Piccies are in the first 3 replies.

    There is a front artwork, and two back artworks.

    They were created for parking on pavements and shared paths, but since mobility scooters are now encouraged on cycle tracks by Govt guidelines they are appropriate there too.

    These are non-confrontational, and remind drivers for whom they are making life more difficult, also dodging any anticycling prejudice.

    The designs emerged in the community around the Wheels for Wellbeing charity, and have been reported useful in some places. They are deliberately not branded, so please do *not* add any brands.

    If you find these useful and want to, perhaps consider a small donation to Wheels for Wellbeing, or take a look at joining their Disabled Cycling Activists Network (DCAN).
