Given the amount of room between the moped and the others cars, it’s clear the moped is being used to block off a space.

People were only too happy to jump in with suggestions on what to do in the comments below.

One said: “Won’t it have to be taxed if it’s parked on the road? Or are mopeds low emission enough to be tax exempt?”

To which another replied: “Needs tax, mot AND insurance to be on a public highway I think, if it’s declared SORN it shouldn’t be on the road at all.”

But another person pointed out: “For a moped, tax will be about a tenner.

“Insurance will likely be less than a couple of hundred.

“If it was bought with an MOT it might still be cheaper than parking for a year in some places.”

Another commenter asked: “Why are folk not just parking about 4 inches away from the moped though? Like normal on-street parking.”

To which someone replied: “Good point. The original poster should buy two mopeds and park one in the gaps on each side of it…”
