Lady driver attempting to turn left at a junction where no left turn is allowed. In fact the junction is designed to discourage left turns , including the very large domed steel tank trap that she is now parked on. smile
Is it stuck there?
Oh yes, well and truly wedged. It caused mayhem in town, apparently over 4 hours before it was removed.

Cambridge Sainsburys. The car park was not particularly busy, but evidently a walk of more than 15 metres from the door is too far for this self-entitled onanist.

I'll just abandon it here, DYL's, near traffic lights, in the event a car at the lights is turning right, no one can pass, oh and behind the row of shops (to the right of the top pic), is an empty car park with 30 mins free parking.

1 for Vipers, Duthie park 20 minutes ago, cars parked on grass - justice?

Drives me nuts, they could easily have made both sides for parking. Dont fancy driving over the kerb either.

I go there during the week and park outside, the pot holes inside are atrocious.

I went to the shops today. Evidently in the 15 minutes I spent inside the entire car park filled up and then emptied again, except for the white stsupissy Lancer that had to park in the space next to me because it was the last one left available.



Either that, or the driver of the stsupissy Lancer is a ing fkwomble furious


That is approx. 1/4 of the car park in the pic. The rest was similarly empty.

A hell of a lot of people simply cannot park without another car or cars to use as a guide. As demonstrated when I park on an end of row space right up against the end line to maximise the space, and I get back and some numpty is partially in my space as they've chosen not to drive into their space but instead just aim to be smack in the middle of two cars.

Went to the Rose Revived for lunch yesterday, summers day by the river it was obviously busy, car park was full. I say full, there was actually 5 or 6 spaces left but due to cockwomble parking, nobody could use them. i tried 2 of them but even with the missus getting out first there was no way i would get out.

This was the worst,

As evidenced by my own neighbours and various people that use the section of road in front of my house to turn around.

Whenever my car isn't parked outside my house my neighbour abandons their car way off the curb and outside their own house rather than right up against my rear bumper when my car's normally parked there. I also usually get a friendly tap on the rear bumper as said neighbour parks using the sensors and "park to touch" method before rolling the car forward and leaving an inch or so of a gap and then claiming "i no hit your car".

Plus when my car's not there people turning around just drive in, reverse straight back and drive off to get back out of the road. Whereas normally when my car's parked outside my house the side of the car seems to get used for 3 point turn target practice by all the bellends that seem to think they can only position their car by using parking sensors and aiming for a fixed target banghead

Been a few years since I have been in Stonehaven. That parking is shocking and I never understand people that can drive with so much junk on the dashboard. I bet there are a few parking tickets hiding in there.

Sadly never seen a warden here except maybe Saturdays, 45 mins usually interprets as park all day, Ime all right Jack.

The sun came out, everyone went mental.








The madness didn't really come across when I looked back at the pictures so I thought I'd grab an aerial view to show the markings. Apparently it's a common issue here laugh

I'm not sure which one was first...but both are badly parked.
