The BAD PARKING thread [vol3]
Discussion
God there are some pedants in this thread.
The guy above is sat in his vehicle in what looks like a pretty empty car park. Also if he were to park in one space and someone else came and parked right next to him then leaving said space can be extremely difficult due to the length and width of the vehicle not to mention trying to get in and out without the doors hitting the vehicle next to you. I know as I drive a van for a living and have no option but to take up 2 spaces when making deliveries sometimes as otherwise I would get pinned in.

When Duthie park had a make over, they put white lines down, I assume to maximum parking spaces, but it's obviously difficult for some drivers to even try to park in the lines.
When I parked, (Volvo on the right) I do what I always do, get out and check back and front of my car to make sure I am parked correctly.
When I returned the 4 x 4 which had been neatly parked behind me gone, and this goon had parked in his space.
These aren't isolated incidents in this park, with limited car spaces, these two were just of a number of numpties today.
Really? It looks like parked cars, they are in the way? Nope. Jus OCD with lines, not everyone cares about lines.When I parked, (Volvo on the right) I do what I always do, get out and check back and front of my car to make sure I am parked correctly.

It was Marks & Spencer Camberley, last night. Was the car park pretty empty? No. The guy above is sat in his vehicle in what looks like a pretty empty car park.

Yes, the vehicle is possibly not the easiest to park, BUT, if he really did need all those spaces, he could have parked 50 metres to the right of where he did park in what WAS an empty park of the car park.

Isn't being able to park within a designated space part of being an competent driver? What else do these morons not understand apart from roundabout procedure and joining roads via slip roads?

Bolzano, Italy - across the road from the hotel in which I was staying.
A few of us were alarmed to hear the unmistakeable crunch of a bumper on a kerb edge. We were also alarmed to see what had done it:
The number plate had taken the brunt, I think. A very similar noise was made when the oik reversed off a few minutes later.
