Darlington street resurfaced around parked car
Attempts to contact the driver whose BMW was left outlined in asphalt have so far proved fruitless.

Maybe it's just the angle of the photo, seems quite a steep roadWas that picture taken before or after they resurfaced it? in all seriousness looks like it needs re-re-doing that quality of work looks shocking.

Lol there's still a pothole on the right side of the road in the cobbled drain area. Proper quarter-arsed job.
Driver might well have ignored the signs, but at the same time with that quality of work and the council refusing to say when they actually pit the signs out I can imagine they might only have put them out a few days or a week before or something and the driver never had chance to see them.
Well to be fair a utility company will be digging it up again in a week or so...Was that picture taken before or after they resurfaced it? in all seriousness looks like it needs re-re-doing that quality of work looks shocking.
Surprised they didn't just lift the car up, had my van moved once when I was away and they redid the lines on the road. Was a bit confusing how it had shifted down the road

A Darlington Borough Council spokeswoman said: "As the vehicle in question has been left in an area without parking restrictions, we're not able to take action against the driver on this occasion.
Thought the same but:
Risk vs reward I guess. Moving the vehicle without legal justification opens the council up to a world of pain if any damage is sustained.I read that as the council won't legally be able to go after the driver, either for a fine or seeking damages for having to pay the contractors twice.
But i don't see why that would stop them craning the car up and moving it to the end of the road or something.
