We all feel your pain. Hopefully that eases the burden.

I know what you mean about the parking sensors. I once was reversing up to a post and heard nothing from the parking sensors. Good job I stopped when I did because I was a couple of mm away from disaster.

Sorry to hear this mate, I have a great quality reverse camera fitted to my IS200, and wasn't paying attention
to my mirrors and nearly caught a post the other day. It made me less reliant on technology I can tell you !!

"A" boards are technically an illegal obstruction on road or pavement (That's Pavement or sidewalk to our old colony across the Atlantic). So.......are they liable?
