No, not turning left at the junction. Parked up and abandoned by a pensioner, because, of course, there was nowhere better to park!

The 'new' road surface looks in a shocking condition as well.
Theres a whole new thread that could be started about the council highways department in Norwich
from the article:

"...continues work to install parking restrictions on the road...."

how do you install parking restrictions?
Metal spikes?

Banbury? You'd think that by having two heads they'd be able to double up their binary vision and park better than that.

In my local Sainsburys, seen a couple of Bentleys, a roller and a Ferrari, they have no problem parking in ONE space, then again if all cars did, this thread wouldnt be here, so keep it up you tards.

I was explained that the auto-parking positions the Tesla exactly between 2 cars...

To be fair I don't have an issue with that as long as they do it at the far side of the car park

Sorry, I'm usually fairly relaxed about grammar, but "I was explained" can't be right surely?

Looks like they got a ticket though, Karma does exist.

When parking is at a premium, a bay which can easily accommodate 4 cars ends up like this, this is not an isolated case, often they park like this all down the street.

Each end cars are at the end of the bay, the left one could be a tad further forward, then some muppet with this GIRNORMOUS car manages to squeeeeze in between them.



They can drive a man nuts.

It's like that quote often on the road outside my house, drives me mental as I'm usually the last to arrive home of an evening so I have to end up parking further away.

Not so much bad parking, but I bet he wished he had parked in the front bay.





Just needs some jobs worthy to give him a ticket for overstaying his time limit.

Parked on the very edge of a large Tesco's car park, with plenty of spaces.

How not to park a car. by Jim Pritchard, on Flickr
Fair play. He's managed to find somewhere in a Tesco car park where someone won't come and park right next to you.

I've managed to park near the far end, loads of spaces all around and have an MPV turn up before I could get out, parking so close I couldn't open the door.

To be fair,it was abandoned more than parked, but someone has just been to pick up his "mate's car"!

I see, when I saw saw that on FB yesterday, I assumed it was recent, I wonder sometimes why people post old stuff, oh well not to worry. Must admit I hadnt seen it before.

LOL my boss managed to do that in an almost empty car park too, although in his case he managed to hit the regional managers Merc - which was the only other car in the place - and on the other side of the carpark.

It was very nice of ASDA to resurface the entire car park earlier this year and make the spaces a tad bigger, but you still can't please everyone.
