I wonder if they've parked so far forward so they've got access to the boot?

Though what I'd personally do is reverse as far back as I could and move forward as and when I needed the boot.... But that's just me and my car park OCD! Having said that I'm more likely to avoid multistories like the plague....
Call me revolutionary, but if I'm parking and know i need access to the boot, I drive in forwards...

PH folklore decrees that this manoeuvre is exceptionally dangerous and will result in at least one family being squished as you reverse out. If you do this once a week that's 52 families per year who you will definitely and without question splat with your rear bumper. Hooligan.

Remember one like in a multi story car park in Aberdeen, they had to barrier off the level to make it safe until the driver returned, apologised and drove off.

Daily moan, ignorant ICE drivers who not only abandoning their car in one of two EV bays, but make it just about impossible for another EV to get in, almost empty car park as well.

Almost certainly locals who know only too well they are EV bays.

My numerous emails and posts on theCouncil website paid off, it seems…

Would 'EV CHARGING ONLY' not have been better wording?

Are these diamond shaped number plates a new thing? First started noticing them on the Urus, but more recently spotted them on badly modded Audis and Fiestas...
