I happily disregard traffic signs and the Highway Code if I believe doing so is the safer alternative.
Well done driver common sense prevails at last
I do a shop in Cambridge have to drive into the shopping centre car park to get to the service yard behind it, nice design thanks for that lol, only way into the car park is by driving “in the out lane” if you drove in using the “in” the bollard and lamp post would be no more if the unit didnt hit it the trailer would little 33ft rear steer aswell
oops 243 fat fingers small keyboard
Go and hand yourself straight into the police station

Carry on drive
You were too high for the low bridge.
You couldn’t avoid passing to the right of the ‘keep left’ bollard due to illegally parked car (within 10 metres/32 feet of a junction, HWC rule 243).
You couldn’t reverse as it is illegal to reverse along (or into) a main road, unless reversing into an entrance.
‘Presumably’ the road wasn’t wide enough to do a 3 point (or 30 point) turn.
You had no other option, I’d have done the same thing and pointed out the above if pulled by the rozzers

I’m intrigued.
You’re going to have to tell us what is was now. If you don’t, the default assumption will be that you went to the same parties as Jimmy Savile and Rolf Harris.

Well I’ll admit to going the wrong side of all the keep left bollards when coming out of Hams Hall on a night. Not performing a slalom with the truck round all the night-outers when you can just use the other side of the road. Hands up!
When I sat my test for cat C1E the examiner took me down a one way street in town centre. There was a lorry unloading at the side of the road and although cars could squeeze past there was no way I was getting past. I pulled over and parked up to wait on him to finish the delivery, the examiner then instructed me to drive on the pavement to get past. Cheeky sod then gave me a minor for it! Was the only mark down tho so despite me protesting about it, I just let it go.
I’ve gone round a roundabout the wrong way to turn right before because the load(60ft without rear steer) wouldn’t go around the big block of concrete the council put in the middle
Didn’t please the nimbys of westbury but it got the job done
Heavy haul boys do this kinda stuff every day.
You see lots of car drivers drive straight over the top of mini roundabouts. They can get nicked for that.
If you are driving a large vehicle they are designed and intended to be driven straight over!
There’s a drop we got that requires a super tight right hand turn around some ridiculously placed bollards in the middle of the road.
Or, you can breeze past them on the wrong side of the road. I just make sure the road I’m turning into is clear and crack on with it.
Miss, miss I know this one…
The legal situation is: Do what you’ve got to do and make sure you aren’t a danger to anyone.
Should of just rammed the car out of the way. Serves em right for parking on a junction.
