The dreaded rear overhang strikes again. Mark on the coach vanished when I wiped my hand over it, but the car has a damaged wing.

I had a similar problem once going into Seaford. The road by the Morrisons garage was closed (the roof had blown off the filling station!) so I took the road behind only to find it turned into a very narrow lane (Clinton Lane) although just wide enough for the coach.
I got to the end and wanted to turn right but with cars parked right up to the corner and on the road opposite there was no room to turn. Only one thing for it was to turn left as it widened out and then reverse out to the main road, all in the dark too. On turning right I did get a no-entry sign with the tail swing! Think it's still at an odd angle now.
