Bad Parking Appreciation Thread

Cars are for driving. Getting from point A to point B. If you have a car that is so special that it needs to inconvenience me, then don't drive it and get a bicycle or don't complain when i go out of my way to return the inconveniences by parking nice and close.

When i see people double parked like that, i can't type out here the things i say or do without getting an infraction.

I've contemplated getting fake tickets to put on people's car for it.

That mini heart attack will teach them.

Yep, this is single handedly one of the most devious notes possible to leave.

I once worked with a guy who dropped a deuce in someone's sunroof once.

This jerk...

This thread is fantastic! I wish I had some pics to add!

God, I forgot all about this thread. I should have take some pictures at the mall today. It was terrible. Tons of people parked over lines, tons of wasted spots because of that. And the guy that parked so close to my door I could barely open it and get in.

I didn't know this thread existed until just now. This is such a HUGE pet peeve of mine. Now I have a place to vent. :-)

The lack of turn signal use is my other one.

I haven't taken pictures recently, but I need to again. Be sure I will though, doc offices are the worst places when parking.

I should have taken a picture of it but some jerk in a jacked up 4x4 split two spots right down the middle in front of a convenience store the other day. It was all I could do not to call him out on it.

Twice this week I have parked my motorcycle correctly and had two parking scholars park over the line and close to me. Both times they parked on my non leaning side which means the bike gets much closer once I pick it up to ride off. One was so close I had to fold in their mirror and still lean the bike to get by.

My bike has a fixed fairing and tips the scale at over 900 lbs. I really don't know why you would park close to it. It is larger than some cars now days.

I left the mirror folded in so maybe they would get a clue they were a...well you know.

I ride too so I know exactly what you're talking about. It happened more often with my Goldwing than it did with my Concours.

I have a picture on my phone!!! Yay I can play! This is our neighbor's yard, the biggest hick yard in town. The city came over to talk to us about our grass being more than 4 inches tall, yet they let our neighbor do this....

DUDE!!!! Optimus Prime live 2 doors down from you?! Can you get an autograph for me? /jealous

PS- You're in Iowa, grass length is always important so you can see the cow pies that get left by the herds moving through. ;)

Yay one more! This is one of the most ridiculous vehicles that I see everywhere! They are NEVER properly parked AND they have a handicap licence plate....

At least it appears from your photo that he's doing it way away from the store front. I don't have much issue with people doing that stuff way down in the back of the lot. It's the jack holes that do it up front that get my goat.

:rofl: I am crying from laughing so hard right now. Now that you put it that way I'm pretty excited to live next door to Optimus Prime....

You know, I use to wonder why people made fun of Iowa all the time, it's becoming more and more clear as time goes on :rolleyes:

I thought so at first too. Then I walk by and it's an advertisement for a wood flooring company...

Southern Victorian...? It looks like a lot of the houses around here lol

Ok, technically not bad parking, other than it's parked on the side of the road, but since I was catching hell about Iowa... This little gem is for sale in my hometown of Washington, IA. It's entirety carpet...

And no, I didn't. We did go out to dinner with Optimus Prime's owner a couple nights ago and I almost told him this story. I was worried that I would have to explain the part about me putting a picture of his semi in the yard on the internet... :P

LOL.. I love this thread.. ha ha.. I didn't see this (below) personally but Ive seen it on Facebook and had to hunt it down for this post. I think its the perfect answer to those who park on the line to avoid anyone next to them. I get the idea of why they do it but its still a jerky move. Park at the end of the lot where no one goes if you don't want anyone next to you.. Goodness.. anyway, cant wait to see what else is posted..

I haven't been able to take pictures, but lately there has been a spate of people parking in handicapped zones that aren't parking spaces.

What i mean is, there are always a few large handicapped spaces for vans to load and unload wheelchairs, they have big zones of yellow lines painted around them to let people know that room is needed for loading and unloading. Recently however, people who are apparently tired of all the handicapped spots being taken, have started parking willy-nilly inside these painted yellow loading lines. They park this way and that way, half in the aisle and half in the loading zone, and they just don't care. I'll just make a parking spot wherever I feel like it. I understand being frustrated about full handicapped spots, but that doesn't give you the right to just invent a parking space.

People in rental trucks are the worst. Driving too. Apparently they needed the sidewalk and don't know how to back in...

You need to find another 'puter and check that clip out...if you worked for U-Haul you'll definitely get a kick out of it... :)
