I was in the centre of town this weekend and could not help but notice many of the streets are being converted into motorbike parking lots (double parked at the roadside) is this legal ? if so it means that as well as being legal to drive the motorbike slowly in the middle of the road they can also jam up the traffic while they are away for a big mac or whatever other reason they came to town for. I think there should be signs at the ends of these streets/lots advising cars not to enter as it is problematic if you meet a car coming the other way.
Probably not. Doesn't really matter if nobody is going to enforce the law though. I won't drive through town during the day unless it is absolutely necessary and if I'm forced to I take side roads/sidewalks when possible.
Probably defining the word Legal here, will take as long as getting motorbikes to be Parked decently.
