- BY LUCY THORNTON

A TRAFFIC warden mown down by a driver he had just ticketed want people to stop abusing workers.

Allan Parvin, 43, suffers excruciati­ng back pain since angry van driver Jason Kelly drove into him for giving him a £70 ticket.

Kelly, of Scarboroug­h, North Yorks, was jailed for 18 months after admitting at York crown court to dangerous driving and witness intimidati­on.

Mr Parvin can no longer play with his six-year-old twins and is urging people to treat wardens better.

He said: “It’s horrible, kids want picking up… but I can’t do that.

“I’ve had a lot of verbal abuse, we all do. But physical abuse is above and beyond what we should have to take.” Kelly also got a 45-month driving ban.
