Not defending it but why is it never these chunts who get keyed? If there was any justice in the world, the owner would be coming back to a big old wang carved into the bonnet.

I'd never advocate keying someone's car. Maybe forward pic to local council, they wouldn't even have to send someone out, they'd have the evidence and round here, they're pretty keen. Would get them some money for the biscuits at the next council meeting and p*ss off the driver.

Vandalism is never the answer

I suppose the moral of this thread is that there's never a parking warden (are they still called that?) or traffic officer around when you need one.

How much "More Space" does a Fiat 500 need?

See this behaviour regularly outside MIL's place, opposite side of the road from a block of retirement flats, virtually every time we visit there's a 1/2 a car gap at the end of the parking bay, to coin a phrase it really boils my ps!!!!!

An older lady came flying into the crematorium at great speed and then "crashed" into the kerb and grass. Registration plate was "FA57 PAM" which seemed apt.

Probably using the bank. Behind that wall is the bank's car park.



He was there for a good 5 minutes. Quite a queue formed.

'Late for your own funeral' springs to mind.

Saw this the other week. Selfish twit in an A1 parking slap-bang in the middle of a space that can fit two cars. Obiously, the A1 is special and doesn't deserve to have any other vehicle parking near it.

Wouldn't it be great if a couple of Smarts had blocked him in

I need a shed K11 Micra. My friend has one and we could have done just that to the A1.

Unlikely but what if a Smart that was parked in front has now departed leaving A1 owner looking a tt?

I see so many cars parked about 4 ft from the end of a bay, seen them do it, tts. In Stonehaven, a bay there will accommodate three cars, tts park couple of ft from each end, now it holds two.

With a personal 'No Left Turn' sign as well. Optional extra?

That must be fake news because it mentions an officer on foot patrol which I haven't seen for at least a decade.

Do you never go into built up areas then?

That's a direct result of people knowing that in most instances they can do whatever they want with no consequences. Frankly I'm surprised TPB haven't twigged this is currently an even better way to make money than to have scameras everywhere. I'd be willing to bet most urbany areas of full of pillocks who park like this - I know in my neck of the woods I see many examples each day - Easy money!

Why destroy people's property for what is after all generally a minor infringement - especially when such action would have a disproportionate effect on some people who would not be able to afford a replacement ?

Recover, impound, publicize. Make sure people get the message.
