Perhaps it's just a means of preparing you for French aires? I think there is a psychological element to it as well - safety in numbers, circling the wagons, that kind of thing. I know it's illogical, but if overnighting in a public area, like a car park or at the roadside, I feel more secure if I'm not the only van there. And so I am quite likely to slot in next to another van - if you 'vant to be alone' a la Dietrich, perhaps you should be on a campsite pitch?

You could always stick a shopping trolley either side of you because nobody wants to get out of their vehicles to move them

Maybe it's just an "English" thing and people are just following their natural instinct to form a queue?
