Near full car park, yet these two knob munchers park in two spaces. The juke is worse, simply because it looks bloody disgusting.

Ironically both of those cars are among the models I'd avoid parking next to the most, and neither would be significantly worse for being covered in door dents either hehe

So much for leaving space for a disabled person to access their vehicle...

I’m certainly not taking his side, after all, judging by the blue chevrons he’s parked in a No Parking spot, but as the KIA has U.S. plates, (possibly Pennsylvania), , the white car is probably LHD, and the driver’s door can be accessed, as can the tail gate for a wheelchair.
Still not good parking though.

You're assuming the disabled person is the driver:

"Christina Reynolds is at Rhea Medical Center.

To the idiot that parked beside me in a spot that is CLEARLY marked for you to not park in, here’s a little inside as to why you do not park in this spot.

Do you see that white truck parked directly to your left?

That’s my vehicle.

Do you know why I am parked in a handicap spot?

I have a handicap placard FOR MY THREE YEAR OLD HANDICAPPED SON.

I don’t ever utilize handicap parking unless he is with me.

My son is trach and gtube dependent. He cannot walk on his own. He cannot talk. He cannot care for himself. He has to have multiple pieces of equipment with him at all times.

Not only did you park in a spot that is provided to those that are handicapped to access their vehicle with ease, you parked so close that I had to back out just to load my son and his equipment back into my vehicle.

I hope you see this post so that you do not burden anybody else who is handicapped ever again."

This made me cringe slightly at Heathrow's long stay car park - the front wheel is also just about on the kerb too

Crowded underground car park, but someone in their Chrysler is far too important to leave a space for others.

Looks like they saw the advert, on the post in front of the car, and decided to dump the car and hurry off for all those £1 bargains.

Yesterday at the Locks Heath centre, yes it has a blue badge in the windscreen, and I know I'm going to take some st over this, but, just how does someone who's disabled get in and out of a low slung sports car like that?
Anyway it's badly parked!!

I cannot. Pre brain haem my P&J fun car was a 70's V8 which was difficult to get out of even with all limbs working. Post-haem I tried once and it was impossible without assistance.
