Young lass pulled up...abandoned car on dropped kerb totally oblivious to the problem caused to the gentleman in a wheelchair who had to go round her car into the main road to try and get past. Then returned to car, reversed straight into main road again to continue her journey !!!

Today, while dog-walking, I watched a woman, in her 70s, drive smartly up to her house and reverse, with no hesitation, into the dead centre of her driveway.
How will we cope without stereotypes to criticize?

But, had you been on the pavement near her, she would have run over you. Obviously! Stereotypes are there for a reason!

Why take up valuable parking space when I can leave it here !!!!
And he wondered why he was a fat f*****. Too far to waddle to the doors if he parked in a marked space.

Amazing when you consider a lot of motorists can't even get their shopping trollies in there?

My local Sainsburys has now introduced pound coin slot trolleys meaning that at last there are none (as yet) being left strewn across the car park.

What causes people to park badly? Is it laziness, a don't give a damn attitude or just plain bad driving?

That's just begging to be blocked in by folk properly occupying the marked spaces ahead and behind him/her. Knob Gobbler indeed.


Yes. I'm aware that, given the size and location of those 'marked spaces' they are most likely a 'hatched area', but it would be funny to see a couple of tatty old 'sub-compacts' teach the idiot a valuable lesson.

What This pic doesn't show is that this car park at my local leisure centre is rammed and it's always a right pain in the backside to get a space there. Cheers bell-end.

Yup! - this is a side road that is less than half a mile from the local overground-liverpool street line so we had cars parked all the way down each side of a road which made two-way traffic impossible. Council put markings on the pavements to free up the road.

Good idea, but you can get these little gizmos shaped like a pound coin, you keep it attached to your key ring.

Just insert into pound slot, remove trolly, pull out gizmo, then you can leave the trolly anwhere you like, not that I have ever been known to do that myself.

Moving on to when the pound coin changes, and it's not that far away, they will have to change all the trollies, plus everything in the country which takes pound coins.

Saw an old boy getting out of this, it's an end bay in a run of disabled bays so I can't imagine why he'd feel the need to go defensive so I'm assuming it's just sh!t.

Because you wouldn't want to inconvenience the car drivers - making them use their steering wheel if it was parked in the road... w**ker!

And another clever tw@... strategically using the bins to completely block the pavement...
