Could it be that its broken down and left their ready to be picked up? Im sure the AA wouldn't leave the car in a parking space if they are recovering it/onward transporting it..Here's one from this afternoon at our local Tesco.
She spent a good minute manouvering into this position. No child of course. She noticed me taking the photo and stormed over, claiming that she was picking up her daughter and grandson. Maybe so, but a dreadful piece of parking. What about the car on her left? How are they supposed to get their kid in?
Apparently I was also breaching the Data Protection Act So she took a photo of me...bring it on

Understandable. But the solution isn't to be selfish and inconsiderate. I can't get my head around that mentality, I'd rather have the dings than be a towards others. 21st Century Man said:

An admirable attempt to see the best in people but stretches credibility somewhat.
I was more thinking how much better it is for the incompetent (or whatever you might call them) to let us all know by their actions of what they are capable, or not.What's really needed is a big sky finger pointing at them which follows them at all times, so the rest of us can take avoiding action.
No photo as I was driving, but someone decided to park their Nissan GTR on the hatchings by the central reservation on the M6 last night, just where the M6 and M6 Toll meet each other.
No lights, about 1am… didn’t look crashed, just seemed to have hastily pulled over and been left. Most odd, I wondered if it had been nicked and abandoned.

Public footpath - yes
National cycle route - yes
Used by horses - yes
Main route from a large holiday complex to the beach - yes
Driver of WL19JDX a moron - probably
The gap to the right between the van and a small Cornish hedge was less than a foot wide, still saved them having to walk about 20m from somewhere sensible to park.

I've seen it posted on here before 2 up to 4 spaces used so that their car is nowhere near anyone else's.
I find parking properly not near anyone else is also a good way to make sure you don't get door dings. Always think parking like this will just attract someone who'll squeeze their car into the remaining space, increasing the chance of the door dings they're trying to avoid.
