It absolutely is NIMBYism.

Get it fekkin' built.

Maybe slow down? Especially after the first time as you now know they're there. Yes the council should fix them, but the driver has to bear some responsibility for driving into a hazard they know exists.

I drive and ride down Nether Auldhouse & Auldhouse Roads fairly regularly and they're a complete riot (as is riding up past Central). Slow and steady is the order of the day.

When was GlasgowLive on here asking about potholes anyway?

LOL, was this cretin born yesterday?

So fuck those of working age and paying for the retired, but the retired themselves can get their snouts in the trough and gobble all the benefits they can get.

This is completely unhinged.

I want to have sympathy with the people here, and I can well believe that GCC will have made kack-handed efforts at "assessment", maybe the pavements are really wide and two wheels up would obstruct no one, but...

If one is parking one's car with all four wheels on the pavement and completely blocking it, then one's car deserves to get lifted (and maybe crushed). What are some of these people thinking?

That's a two lane road. Park down one side, buses etc can still pass. Is it inconvenient? Yeah, probably, but not as inconvenient as some selfish cunt taking up the entire pavement with their car.
