And doing a 2 car shuffle in the morning to gets cars out for work really gets annoying..
whereas being on the nature strip people can still walk past easily and you can fit a postie bike quite comfortably past my car and garden edge/ letterbox.. (hes been doing this for months and months without any dramas)
and even though this maybe illegal, the police officer and australia post havent said anything about it ?!?! and even if they did, it dosent neglect the fact that he scrapped down the side of my car and drove off.. leaving the scene of an accident?
Anyhow, the postie admitted to doing the damage to my car, and hopefully without too many dramas they will pay for it to be fixed..

Just be aware that if anyone looses control on the road in front of your house and hits your car, it could be used as a way out of paying you any compensation. Just because everyone else does it, wont be much comfort to you then. Be aware you take a calculated risk parking there.
Glad to read that you are having your car fixed.
