WE asked readers to send us pictures of shocking parking examples from across south Bucks - and you didn't let us down.
Earlier this month, we brought you a series of reader pictures of dangerous parking, and we've now compiled the latest submissions of questionable manoeuvres.
It follows the news that the government launched a national inquiry into pavement parking, which they call a 'real problem' on our roads.
The government's transport committee said that there has been a 'lack of progress on the issue'.

Some of the latest examples include:
- Cars blocking the entire pavement on an otherwise empty road
- Cars parked across junctions
- Cars blocking an approach to a school
- Cars parked dangerously near pedestrian crossings
This series of pictures was taken by one person during a 40-minute dog walk around Totteridge.
One reader sent us a flurry of pictures of poor parking, and even a fake ticket that had been put on one driver's windscreen.
It's not clear whether that correspondent was responsible for the 'TW*T TICKET' displayed on this vehicle.
This time around, Marlow came in for a hammering from readers, with drivers there blamed for blocking pavements and forcing pedestrians to walk on roads.
Here's a series of pictures from Marlow.
Queens Parade, Marlow.
Meanwhile, in High Wycombe, readers complained that people take risks with their parking in the areas around Desborough Avenue.
The reader who sent these images said:
"I have been walking to work down Desborough Ave over 15 years, parking on the pavement has got progressively worse, till now it is positively dangerous forcing pedestrian to walk past the cars in the road!
"Have complained to local councillor with no effect."
Lastly, these outrageous examples of poor parking - one next to a pedestrian crossing - were sent in from Stokenchurch, labelled simply 'Fantastic Parking'.

The last word goes to reader Ann Holden, who shared this:
"I cannot understand why these drivers do not grasp that the kerb is there for a reason - to delineate between roads for cars and pavements for pedestrians.
"Many think it is ok if pedestrians can 'squeeze' by - oblivious to the needs of mothers with pushchairs, elderly or disabled users, schoolchildren with bags etc.
"Because of someone parked selfishly on a corner on Hillside Road, I saw a young mother and a pram forced to use the road, and nearly hit by car emerging from Woodland Road.
"Had the latter not being driving carefully because he was unsighted by the parked car, he would certainly have hit them.
"Parking on pavements and verges is selfish, dangerous and despoils previously attractive streets by turning green verges into rutted muddy wasteland."
