'Petty' letter left on car ignites huge row in seaside town where people struggle to park

A letter left on a parked car in a residential street has ignited a huge debate. Motorists in a North Wales seaside town labelled it “petty” but others urged drivers to be “considerate” to homeowners frustrated by parking issues.

Parking disputes are familiar to millions and in one Colwyn Bay street the fuse was lit by a polite letter left on a car at the weekend. The hand-written letter informed the driver the street is a “residential road and not a car park” and asked the driver to park elsewhere.

The driver’s “highly disappointed” mother took to Facebook to vent her anger over the letter. She said her son has been parking in Colwyn Bay, Conwy, to work twice a week for the past four months, and was not causing any problems.
