    Every street in my suburb is choked with parked cars because everyone has filled their garages with shit and decided the road is for personal long-term vehicle storage.

    Even the 2-bed units have two cars each and at least one is on the street.

      Seems more like a problem with the local streetscape devoting space to long term storage of vehicles.

      One thing councils are competent at is issuing parking fines, if only the appropriate restrictions were in place.

      My personal preference would be to see residential access roads transformed into communal green spaces with basic access paths for pedestrian/cycle/emergency/utility purposes.
