As the entrance looks like its on a slope I wonder whether the builder measured and signed the height at the front of the building and the rear is lower? That seems consistent with the ambulance clearing the front but bashing the rear.

Donkey is giving rides on Blackpool Beach - Mule went missing during the dodgy burger meat fiasco.

Not just me then, agree. The Kia driver looks like he is trying to block anyone else parking, tt.

I don't think that's bad parking.


If something happened to you that was an emergency and police had to rush out of the supermarket to their car to come and help you, would you prefer they were parked in a disabled bay at the front, or in a normal space 300 metres away?

Where are the bay's what?

What is a Range River? A new model with a snorkel kit?

Its a fair point... But they could have parked straight at least! Arguably, if they're going to park in a disabled bay at the front for emergencies, they could have reversed in neatly too just to speed things up again in an emergency, surely?

The only issue I see is why/how someone has a car worth more than their house, especially given they are at home as much during the day to notice the non issue.

IKEA Munich yesterday - apparently the driver thought it was fine to park in a pedestrian walkway:

They seem to be breading like flies at Sainsburys, loads of the buggers out today, checked just in case it was Sunday,

Chose these clowns near to me.

Let it hang out baby.





And this one, as the bay's are offset to each other, he has managed to use three to abandon his wheels.

Second picture you just see the edge of it, they are marked as disabled bays with big writing in them.

Also Kia driver tried to take both "spaces" beside the disabled bays.


And to who ever said the cars worth more than my house. It's a £3900 car so get over yourself, was visiting my friend.

Ps: I don't own a house - I'm 20 wink

Tks, the only time my wheels were worth more than my house was when I bought my first house, exactly 8k, then I bought a VW Devon Moonraker for 8k and a few quid more.

This was in 76, and the camper (which I sold), is still showing as being on the road.

Sorry but still can't see the lines designating disabled bay's where the Kia and Rover are parked.

This comes up often, with someone suggesting that they have possibly run in to apprehend someone quickly; usually this is disputed by the person that took the picture who saw the officers buying their lunch.

For me, if they want to be out in an emergency then fine, but please show a good example by reversing in properly, and I don't see why one doesn't stay in the car so if need be (in a normal space), they can drive to the front of the store to collect their lunch buying colleague.

If those that enforce the law show a lack of regard for rules, some citizens will ask why they need to, a bit like the broken windows theory.

I really do not understand the disabled issue.

The Kia seems to have parked far enough to the right if the disabled spot so as to leave plenty of space for the disabled driver.

How ia that an issue????

Until someone parked up against the drivers side so he can't get in his car, it wasn't.
