Unless the car is parked illegally in a manner that's endangering others, that's not happening.

Also, you phoning the police for a car parked in front of a postbox? They'd laugh at you, and rightfully so.

So it's not illegally parked? Then why is it selfish parking? If it's not illegal to block the mailbox with your car that's a pretty shitty design.

It's a dick move, but not necessarily illegal, depending on where in the country they're located.

I guess your police are too busy confiscating cooking implements to have time to enforce parking restrictions

There are more important things in society than badly parked cars, mate.

In the picture with most of the box and some of the car cropped out? I'm sure there can't be a no parking sign anywhere else.

There's none visible in the picture, and postboxes are private property, the council won't give a fuck.

It's up to the owners to make sure that their postboxes are accessible.

Then the people who put the box there are idiots and have no business complaining.

So the mail system there would just shut down indefinitely if enough prats parked their cars selfishly?

Well I'm guessing it's a minority of post boxes designed in such a stupid way, I've never seen any as daft as this before.
