What can I say? You'd have to be a borderline sadist to reverse park up to a footpath with a tow bar and walk away without a care.
Hands up anyone who has ever smacked a shin on one of these in their life? (that's right, probably EVERYONE).
Now, where's my angle grinder? :x

Doesn't look like it has ever been used for towing. :cry: So may as well cut it off. :thumbsup:

Never banged my shin on one...ever...but I tend to give any parked vehicles a decent gap as I don't want something I'm carrying to inadvertently scratch someone's pride & joy / piece of s**t (delete as appropriate).

Did manage to ski into a car park barrier once though - but my excuse was that it was covered in lovely powder and I was using the car park as a short cut to the ski-in area of my hotel - now that hurt...a LOT :x
