The BAD PARKING thread [vol3]

[delboy735]

A few minutes later in a different supermarket. This oik needed to be closer to the door....most other spaces were vacant. What looks like a blue badge is actually a scratch card !!!! ( I checked before taking piccie ...)

Took 2 tries to park like this....

In fairness to the driver of this, as a fellow phev owner, the cables are too short on the chargers so that if you park in the left bay properly the cable won't reach the socket on the car but if you park in the right hand bay and use the left socket (the correct fitting for the phev), it prevents anyone using the other bay anyway.

Clearly, the points were designed for nose charging Leaf/zone affairs, not tax dodging 4x4's...

Saw this yesterday, it's on a military camp but the space they have aimed at and missed dreadfully is actually a disabled space!

I suppose that he is keeping the 'KEEP CLEAR' sign clear.

I moved away from Melksham over 25 years ago, but it still struck me as familiar.

T537 MOE is now 'untaxed' (due 22 Aug) and nearly out of MOT; maybe dumped?

This specimen was here in the morning when I took it, and still there hours later when I returned (partly blocking the entrance and exit to its right:

Well spotted! Of all the places to dump it.. right in a bus stop too

A couple today, a Range Rover in the parent and brat bays, probably a woman......



Another gone shopping, probably a woman, (but give the benifits of doubt could be one of the workers.



But congratulations must be give to those who deserve, woman drives up, stops, and a quick reverse in no messing. It can be done.



Almost as good as me

Check out this spanner. Parked about 4m from a junction from a 40mph road...

...it makes me happy to know how much it upsets some folk

I'll try to go all-out on the next one.

Coincidently this is exactly why I park like a tw@t.

That hurt my head. And I'm still non the wiser as to actually how it'd work. Far too late for me.

(In my defence, I've never seen a Phev charger, or paid much attention to the layout of a public charging point.)

School run mum number one pulls up, sticks her head out of the window to see how much space is behind her, then stops. School run Mum number two then pulls up, but as she wants to chat to number one also stops right there. On what planet do you see that much space behind and think 'that'll do'.

Oh look, I have an X5 and am therefore too special to park properly in busy areas.

Penis!

Idiots do this in our road all the time (there's a church 100m away with a car park the size of a tablecloth).

Wondering why they didn't just drive forward into the bay in front. Might have ended up straight as well.
