Bank Holidays bring them out in force. Sainsburys, Cambridge, Good Friday: one of their busiest days, car park very full, but this selfish F$%^tard with the 1.2 litre car and the 200cc brain does this....
Ahhhh, Cambridge. Land of crap drivers, suicidal cyclists and 5 million traffic wardens. Thank fk I don't live there anymore.Went to the local Post office collection thingy today and was dismayed to see at least 4 examples of terrible parking out of only 20 or so cars.
Thing is the car park was huge and the bad parking wasn't impacting anyone - you got the sense that people were parking badly precisely because it 'didn't matter'.
Is this officially excused by everyone and I'm just a bad tempered tit?
Don't get me wrong it stayed in my head all of 5 seconds at the time but for me there was still something fairly arrogant about it. Sort of reminds me when you go round a blind bend and there's someone lacking lane discipline because they get the sense that they're the only car on the road and there couldn't possibly be anyone close by. The whole idea of changing your behaviour because someone isn't watching/shouting/caring seems inherently lazy to me at least...
