A big hello to the meat headed driver of the black MKI VW (It's made by VW, not Porsche and isn't even German) Cayenne GTS thingy in Southend's Tesco today. You were parked in the road you fat bell end and suddenly became disabled. Here's an idea, why not park in one of the dozens of empty parking spaces like everyone else?

A couple today.

First plain cannot park, I watched them swing in and thought "they'll never make that", sure enough, bang goes the rear wheel into the curb as they bounce over it at speed.


And then these three specials, the Silver Hyundai, the white van and the Blue Audi are all parted in "Bus only" marked areas (not to mention how far away the Hyundai is from the curb).


As also is this Honda

Ah yes. That'll be the manually added IMG tags without a closing ] smile

The street I live on today. Some complete, gold-plated, world class retard who I suspect has parked up and walked over the nearby footbridge to the station to catch a train for a nice day out in London. Although I thought they flogged the gag to death, that Top Gear segment about the cliched Peugeot driver was so true.



What's on the windscreen?
A note from one of my neighbours asking them to park with more consideration in future.

Is that Greville Road?

I used to live near there around 2007 before moving out of the area and even then the parking was a complete joke. I ended up selling my vehicle as I just got pissed off by the situation and the whole anti-car mantra that seems to pervade Cambridge.frown

Why the council haven't put in controlled zones along the Rustat Rd locality of the footbridge is beyond me. Surely a nice little money spinner for the car hating council?confused

Still, at least there's lots of shiny new things for the tourists to look at in the city centrerolleyes
Yep, it is indeed Greville Road.

Parking here is Australia






All jokes aside, some of the worst drivers in the world live over here, and parking skills don't tend to be amazing either.

I only realised I had HDR on when I looked back at this, I wasn't trying to be arty smile

I watched as the two vans arrived, went through a no entry sign to go up a one way Street the wrong way and then park in the road area of the pedestrianised section rather than the designated parking bit right next to them.
That's Morley for ya!

One of my colleagues insists on double parking every time. No idea why, he only drives a pre-facelift Fiesta Titanium...

Just found this I took two years ago in the states.

Well, it is a big bike, and it's nearly in laugh



I watched them abandon it, absolutely nothing in front for quite a few spaces, dear oh dear.

This Asda in Derby always has plenty of the usual bad parking over lines etc, but this one really took the biscuit. Plenty of spaces 30s walk away, but nah, just dump it on the kerb.

There's a thread running at the moment about how inconsiderate and unlawful the residents of a similar situation were for having white lines and marked bays put in their road, near a mainline station.

I think pictures like the above, serve to remind us why.
I thought of the same thread when I saw those pics. No doubt NismoLife on the other thread would defend parking like that and state that the residents are just being mean, before ending his post with LOLZ rolleyes

Nothing wrong with that - parallel and close to the kerb ... oh hang on, double yellows. That'll be it.

If your children are that ugly why not reverse park so people can see over the bonnet at least?

and something fairly low slung could almost nose up to the windscreen getting more cars in less space - win win

What an utter .

Anyone know the owner of A577STU?
A577 STU. That is A577 STU. A577 STU.

How often does it need to be mentioned for Google to notice?

The owner just might put his registration into Google one day.

Doesn't everyone do that?

Well I might is I was the sort of bellend who had A 577 STU but as I don't, I don't. IUSWIM
