Good to solve another local mystery thanks! I’m failing to understand why the obvious solution isn’t implemented especially considering there are some seemingly free spots closer to town where people are ticketed. Then again it would be so much easier to convert them to 2 hour meters and the place I’m talking about doesn’t cause any obstructions ( Hong Tsuen Road is very wide!)
On the few occasions I’ve been tempted to buy a car his ones are way down the list. Much better options in Sai Kung and much better current options with leavers selling. Don’t really need a car but I’m tempted to hire a car for the weekend to explore large parts of NT still untouched by me but the way I’m reading the rules I need a HK license so I need to don’t that process first.
Yeah I agree that off street parking could be better organised in Sai Kung, adding more parking meters would be a good idea. Also where McDonalds, Starbucks and the post office, where they could limit parking to 15 minutes would help a great deal as it is a bit silly having to go to all the trouble of parking in the PITA multi floor wilson car park just to pop in and grab a couple of things and go.
For us as a family with children and two cars when we lived in Sai Kung, just made our life so much easier and immediate, which was a cost vs convenience measure, which we didnt mind paying, warts and all.
It greatly made taking the kids out to do various activities a LOT easier, allowed us to explore a lot more of HK and visit various friends who lived mostly in the NT and a small few on the south side of HK Island, making it on the whole, very kid friendly and certainly beat being stuck on public transport for hours over what was on a distance point of view, quite short but usually quite time consuming trip. Not great when it's hot and humid. So I dont regret it one bit, it made life a lot more bearable.
HK is great to own a fun car, I sort, of miss having a convertible, ( as road speeds are generally slower in HK ) which I owned various models during my lengthy time there, but these days have put that all to bed and tend to have a much less ostentatious attitude toward cars since we moved back. I was fortunate to have enjoyed these when I was young and don't have any mid life crisis desires, ( now) thankfully!
But it was great to just wake up early on a sunny Sunday morning and spontaneously decide to go for a cruise over to, Stanley, Shek O or Shouson Hill, for brunch from the Kung with the top down, we used to love doing that.
