WHY do selfish car/van drivers insist on ruining their own and everyone else’s environment by parking on or driving over grass verges?

In this area alone the verges have been churned up so badly that all that is left is pure mud with vehicle tyre treads all over them, and large holes gouged out, which then quickly fill with rainwater, leaving large puddles.

We have written to local councillors about this problem, but to no avail. Surely something can and should be done to stop this menace.

If our local councillors took a walk around this estate I’m sure they would be shocked and appalled as much as we are at te devastation being done, which without help never recovers.
