Calum Macdonald stands in. Parking on pavements, Ask the Vet and Anxious Children

BBC Radio Scotland - The Kaye Adams Programme, Calum Macdonald stands in. Parking on pavements, Ask the Vet and Anxious Children

Should parking on pavements be banned? Ast the Vet and Name the Place.

Calum Macdonald stands in and gets to the heart of the stories making the news. Should parking on pavements be banned? How do you help an anxious child? Plus Name the Place.

Pavement parking and double parking could be banned under new legislation being introduced to the Scottish Parliament. The Scottish Government has published its Transport (Scotland) Bill, which includes a range of measures to improve transport around the country. The Scottish Conservatives say it's an anti-car agenda whilst Scottish Labour said the bill was "a huge missed opportunity". 

Should parking on pavements be banned? If you could introduce one piece of legislation to the Transport bill what would it be?
