Poll: Is it okay to park up on the footpath?

Your daily bite-sized ballot break.

A SURVEY FROM the AA found that Dublin drivers are considered the worst in the country. Reader Niall got in touch to ask us to run a poll on a “slightly related topic”.

So, Niall, this lunchtime poll is for you. Niall asks, “Can you do a poll about people’s thoughts on parking on the footpath. Drives me nuts having to walk onto the road when walking with a buggy (dangerous too). Must be worse for people in a wheelchair.”

So, is it ever okay to park on the footpath?

Poll Results:

No, never (9723)

Maybe, in limited circumstances (6903)

Yes (1411)
