Bad parking job, have you seen this?
Car parking for the selfish

Just women parking badly?

don't think so, men are just as bad at parking a car as they are a hitting the toilet by all acounts. What's the worst park job you have ever seen, and do you think a male or female driver was responsiible?



Cars parked across two bays. I still can’t understand why some people have to park in such a selfish manner, parking in disabled spaces and sprawled across the painted lines.

04-3-2008Unfortunately the white lines in car parks are usually too close together for the large vehicles that are now in common use. If I can't open my door fully then I can't get in/out comfortably while avoiding damage to the car next to me or to mine. My car is not large and I avoid parking next ...moreNorman

23-10-2007Thanks for this OCset. They were dregs of humanity and the next time this should happen I will run them down. I don't mind muck on my windscreen from time to time.DC
22-10-2007I think you were presciently visited by one of these http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=6765 Did the car have the initials of an upmarket tea supplier, T. E. Stockwell (formally Messrs Torring and Stockwell of Mincing Lane)?Ocset
22-10-2007The other week my family and I went shopping at a Tesco branch in London. There was a parking slot that was occupied by five males, just stood there and, they made it very clear that I should not attempt to park on this particular spot. I later found another vacant slot and as we walked toward t...moreDC
15-10-2007I agree that people that park in disabled spaces and indeed parent and toddler spaces should get there comuppence. As the car park people are not interested then I have taken it upon myself to do it. If I witness an offence then I take great pleasure in issueing a ticket I purchased from revengeisye...moremadmother

20-8-2007I pulled into a parking space on Saturday morning and as I was getting my money out of my bag the attendant slapped a ticket on my car. I hadn't even had time to take off my seat belt yet !! This is insanity !!BOOBEE
12-8-2007By the way - Willy 1 Spot gets full marks for his way of dealing with the 2 space thing. Well done chap, gave me the best laugh I've had in months!!!!!!!!!!Wouldloveto
12-8-2007I am afraid to say that the reason your BMW owner takes up two spaces instead of one is the same as the many 4 x 4 owners who park in 'disabled spaces'. It is because they consider they have the right to rather than to face a bill for the odd scratch or dent that many of us have to put up w...moreWouldloveto
01-7-2007Alot of people with fancy cars park that way so that their precious car wont get scratched by someone else parking too close to their car ... which for the record isnt an excuse just a reason that they might do it. At the last company I worked for the owner was kind of eccentric (mabye even kin...moreNew Guy
