Your Local Guardian, Surrey Comet and Richmond and Twickenham Times readers have cast their votes in a poll on whether parking on pavements should be illegal.
Last week, Your Local Guardian asked if the ban should be spread nationwide, after the Times revealed that ministers were debating the matter.
More than 200 people voted in the poll, with 67 per cent choosing yes and 33 per cent saying no, it should not be banned.
Commenter Agamemnon and Cassandra said: "When London, urban, and sub-urban communities were designed 100 years ago, it was never envisaged that every family would have a motor vehicle. Even 50 years ago it was never envisaged that many households would have at least two maybe three.
"Mum, dad, and teenager. Where do people expect all these vehicles to be parked?
"Suburbia was supposed to be green front gardens, not concreted over for parking."
Binsanity said: "Surely this is dependent on the locality. If the pavement is particularly wide and the road particularly narrow then common-sense should prevail.
"On the other hand if there is an issue with wheelchairs, schools, hospitals, and prams or buggies then obviously not. It has to be determined locally by local councillors and local residents and there the problems may occur."
Alroutemaster1 said: "Yes of course it should be banned. When I was a proper Police Traffic Warden in London we enforced it across the whole of London.
"It hinders pedestrians (especially the blind), it damages pavements and it's not necessary. If you don't have a garage or off street parking, don't have a car."
Vote in our next poll: Have your say: Should St George's Day be a national holiday?
