A couple who live near a school say parents picking up and dropping off their kids have been causing mayhem on their road for decades. Pauline and Terry Thomas said mums and dads have been blocking their driveway for forty years, and it has had an impact on their mental well being.
Pauline has cancer and says once she was trapped outside her gates as she battled to get a taxi to her cancer appointment. She said the school run 'ruled her life'.
She has been forced to confront drivers who park up on the yellow zig zags lines outside her home to protect children. Over the years the couple has witnessed hundreds of parents park up ouside their home. Pauline believes the situation is dangerous for children and residents living on Boothroyden Road.
