The BAD PARKING thread [vol4]
Discussion
Depends who was parked there first I guess. If the 208 was there first then the other cars can be blamed, if not then you'd think the 208 driver would use common sense and park slightly further forward.
Although living on a narrow terraced street myself I know how finicky some people can be about parking directly outside their own house, oblivious to the chaos is can cause.

Typically cars are always parked on the side of my (the white) car. It's always been that way - it's just you often get cars parking on the other side on a way that makes it a slalom to get down.
It works. And both my and the red car were there first - in fact, my car had been there since the day before..

I didn't take a picture mainly because I was on a garage forecourt, was waiting to be rescued but that's another story, and a tanker pulls up to make a delivery, he cones off the last three pumps and all the customer parking bays as he needs a direct exit route should anything go wrong, a Ford Ka comes down between the next two rows of pumps looking to park in the now coned off customer spaces, boyfriend jumps out, kicks one of the cones over and walks all 20 paces to the cash point while the stupid 20 something girl just drives in and parks up to wait, I'm stood there staring at them thinking how f
ked this country is if they're the future, boyfriend walks back to get in the car and looks at me over the roof but doesn't say anything, I'm just stood there shaking my head!!!!

Not sure if it's bad parking or a complete lack of common sense and logic...
The disabled couple who park in the circled disabled space to visit Farmfoods (and wheel the trolley all the way across the car park) when the disabled spaces are all taken outside the shop, despite plenty of empty 'normal' spaces.

Perhaps they need the extra width to get a door open wide enough and are worried that, if they parked in a standard space, they wouldn't be able to get back into their car if others park alongside...The disabled couple who park in the circled disabled space to visit Farmfoods (and wheel the trolley all the way across the car park) when the disabled spaces are all taken outside the shop, despite plenty of empty 'normal' spaces.

Local recycling centre this morning
The elite plastics van wanted to park nearest to a particular skip so obviously thought “fk it, we’ll just block the entrance until our skip becomes available”
Seven cars had to unload outside the recycling centre - I asked one of the workers if I could drive through the no-entry exit to get in and another vehicle did the same.
Sorry it’s in portrait
