I bet OP is from the US. In Europe people park their cars anywhere they fit, on any side of the road or sidewalk. So many of their cities were built before personal cars became a thing, after all.
I haven't been in all of Europe but that's absolutely not the case everywhere (if anywhere idk).
Here, parking on the sidewalk is prohibited and a fine is around 110€. The parking in the image is technically illegal, but I don't know if it would be fined in practice.
Funnily enough I read this article recently: How Neighbors Got NYPD to Stop Parking on a School Sidewalk After 40 Years
Where is "here" for you? I totally understand how it can vary by country. I was most recently in the UK, and I saw cars parked anywhere they could fit.
In the Nordic.
Europe is a big and diverse region. One can't make these claims on an anecdote from just a single European country.
Saying "EU" instead of "Europe" would narrow it down quite a bit but often not enough.
Fair enough. Every country is different, as you correctly note.
It's only illegal in the UK in London (wierd exception, imo). On other places it's down to local byelaws (our local council states that a car must allow enough space for a wheelchair to pass for example, although it's rarely enforced).
This is in Europe, but the mildly infuriating part isn’t about the sidewalk, it’s about the car being crooked. If it were US these would probably all be SUVs.
