Today's Mr.Penis head at Sainsbury's. The lamppost is in line with the middle of the bay's, and yes you can park adequately without hitting the lamppost, but oh no, I need 2 and a bit bays.






The Scoobe reversed in as I took the pic.

Bad as it is, I have never figured out why they don't put those yellow hashed lines on both sides of the disabled bay.

Because that's a baby buggy bay, not a disabled one?

A relatively empty Aldi car park, the driver was sat in the cab, on his phone; I guess whilst his colleague was doing the shopping, whilst you can should never judge someone by the way that they look, given that there was no blue badge and I should imagine it is a physical job, I don't think the driver was in any way disabled:

My coffin nails and latte are far more important than people trying to exit the forecourt

How ignorant is this?



Makes it awkward for cars to get round the bend. I'm parked in another row of bays so there's not a great deal of space to get the swing round.

Good spotting bat man, but same question. Presumably if you park to the right of that one, you have hashed both sides? It is the same though for disabled bays around my way.

If the driver is disabled, drive in, if the passenger is, reverse in, space for pram/wheelchair/full door opening.

or

BMW/AUDI ? , just park in

[kowalski655]

Allows 2 disabled/ child filled cars to use 1 hashed area, equals more car bays.
If you have more than 1 child/ disabled person though, you're screwed.

Wonder about the legalities of you getting a ticket based on a photograph taken by a member of the public. Can we take pictures of those on DYL's and send them to who ever issues fines?

Park Street car park in Cambridge yesterday afternoon. It showed 4 spaces remaining. I was greeted with this after finally getting to the top floor:

An AUDI, we expect nothing less.

It would be a 'Parking Charge Notice' or whatever the slimy fkers call them, not a ticket in the usual sense.

I wish that someone in the media would read the bloody thing before reporting on it!

The app is for land owners who have a contract with the parking company so tickets can be issued when there is not an employee of the parking company on site. It is not for members of the public to go around snapping photos willy nilly

There is bad parking and bad parking, these are atrocious.

Sainsburys in Cambridge, late morning on Saturday, so the car park was extremely busy. Selfish prick.

And apologies for the orientation of the photo - sodding iphone; it's the right way up on the phone.
