Reply to comment by Both-Internal-6970 in Delivery drivers blocking streets by JamesBhand-007

I guess my tiff is that he was really planning on sitting there for at least 20-30 minutes. I asked him what he was delivering and he showed me this long as list. I’m pretty sure he said there were 6 pallets he had to unload?

I’ve never had a regular driver block a street, but I’d hope they would t sit there for more than a few minutes.

Super common here. More than other cities.

yea that’s because the Richmond parking enforcement is a joke compared to where I moved from. Philly Parking Authority is so bad they made a show about it.

Honestly happens all the time here. I’ve learned which streets to not take to avoid this stuff. My commute is honestly probably just a couple minutes longer BUT it’s consistent so I can plan my schedule. Some other roads are quicker but the frequency this happens has made me find an alternative route which is much more consistently clear. I suggest doing the same.

This is the first time this has happened for me. Hence my complete and utter shock lol. I can’t change my commute as this road is a detour from another closed road. Like I mentioned above. This seemed like a one-off, so I’m not too worried that it’ll happen again.

You can definitely change your commute, they cannot change their delivery. Hopefully one day you’ll realize that EVERYTHING is delivered by trucks.
