yes it is illegal to park on the pavement as this obstructs pedestrians right of way ,
it is also blocks disabled people plus mum's with prams , pushchairs aswell ....
but as some of the streets in some areas are so narrow one also have to remember one thing , emergency services ..i.e fire services , ambulances who have to get to the scene of an emergency quickly as possible , some councils do in some ways relax the punishment for parking on the pavement ,
according to law , one mustn't obstruct the public highways act but as I said many now relax this and are begining to do away with grass verges and replacing that with parking lots , more could be done in that area as there are far too many wide grass verges which could easily be turn into proper parking plots
why don't some councils even consider that I don't know.

if you damaged a vehicle that's parking half and half on the pavement , techically you aren't responsible for any dameged to the said vehicle or if you get injured by the said vehicle
owners of the vehicle concern is responsible for your well being

It's worth noting that technically it's illegal to park ANYWHERE on the highway except in specified parking places - like parking bays, meter bays etc. - whether there are yellow lines or not. The highway includes the pavement. Anyone who does so can be done for "obstruction of the highway"Has anyone been charged or had a court fine because you were driving whilst on your mobile...?
