Saw this on Friday in a car park in Nottingham. May have been avoiding a previously poorly parked car.

Don't know what's worse. The bad parking or that someone doesn't know how to hold a phone the right way up.

I feel for Evoque drivers as their cars are clearly too big to fit in a space....oh wait!

What a good idea. Age related parking bays! I don't qualify for any of those, yet.

Just thought I'd comment here too. Parent stopped at local secondary school opposite the entrance so her child had to cross the busy road and meantime the school buses couldn't get out. Selfish and stupid!
CCTV to monitor parking at schools on my patch. Presumably with a bking if poorly positioned. Or maybe detention?
Detention? Why should the child suffer? Fines by the council should be better
I meant the parents.

It's actually the fault of Thumbsnap for ignoring orientation tags in the JPEGs.

I saw some reserved parking bays for motorbikes and thought they were a bit job specific as the ones I glanced at read:

RC
YC
LE
S

And then it dawned on me.

Not waiting at the junction, it's parked.

Off topic but there's a mint looking, black MG Maestro Turbo that lives just down from there. Always see it on my route.

It's not bad parking, it's more, "There's a PH regular, let's mess with his head."



Go on, that is a bit odd, isn't it?


Isn't it?

And all with two spaces.

Do you think they could be members of a display team?

It was at Norton Canes Services so there was plenty of scope for vehicle-type and spaces randomness.

Good, I've done similar at work in our cleary signposted customer parking area to people who aren't visiting us, I don't block them in but I make it very difficult for them to a) get in their car and b) get their car out.
