Mother of the owner as far as hearsay has me told.
Selected reverse instead of first, then "instinctively" floored it when it started going in the wrong direction.Or worse, selected reverse, hit bollard and thought "it's not moving", then sat there with her foot to the floor.
Also looks like a VW Scirocco, im sure these have reverse next to first gear, but im unsure as to whether it's lift or press (or what) to select reverse.

From what I heard it was the Auto variety of Scirocco.Or worse, selected reverse, hit bollard and thought "it's not moving", then sat there with her foot to the floor.

You poor sod , i hate that shop with a passion mainly cause the car parks full of mongs 
Oh it's ok, I'm a home shopping driver - Lucky if I spend 1/10th of my shift in that depressing building.
Thats what all spaces should be like! Enough room to open your door fully and dance around between cars!
By the way on the subject of that Top Gear pic, those disabled spaces are quite pathetic to be honest, they're the same as any other space just close to the entrance. Dont these people realise what disabled people actually need is room to open the door fully etc?

A lot of places are like this, it's a legal requirement to have a certain number of disabled spaces versus regular one's. They just paint in a wheel chair and having met the legal requirement, they leave it at that.lyonspride said:

Yes i know, where i work is the same but at least when that was designed they made the spaces 30% wider than normal ones. But that was a site built with it in mind, alot of older places just get a can of paint out and be done with it.The space to the right of James' car is pathetic, if that is even a space, if it isnt it shows they couldve made them all a bit wider and 'bunched up' a bit. Poor planning.
