Funny Parking

[OffRoadFalcon]

Here's a couple of photos of two people parked in strange ways in the same spot, at one of the shopping centres in town. Why either of them couldn't have parked a space or two along I don't know! Had the camera with me and I couldn't not get a shot.
Never seen parking like this before. Wonder what the story is?






Just thought I'd share.

the magna? i reckon was trying to get as much shade as possible, the tucson also thought that was a fine idea and wanted that exact bit of shade too?

Hadn't thought of that!

Only time I've seen someone do what the Magna's done is my uncle with his F250, because it's so long, and others with big vehicles.

[Dash_XR]

You should of parked behind the magna, the owners reaction would of been priceless.

[OffRoadFalcon]

Haha! Probably would've ended up with a banged up front bumper too!

[GodOwnsAnFPV]

one of the best efforts I have seen in a long time! Tuscan made it's point I think.

Went shopping today and saw 2 FWDs which had cut across the white line and hadnt parked straight.

Some of the people who park in the handicapped spots dont appear to be handicapped these days... same with those bays which are sposed to be with mums with prams!

Some people really cant park for nuts

I'm sure they just don't care how they park. See it quite often, no one can park next to them as they are parked well over the line at some odd angle with the steering on full lock.

Should have their licence taken away IMO, imagine how their manners are when driving?

[usernametaken]

me and some random old guy walking past shamed a mum who just shoved her empty trolley into the vacant car park next to her car after shopping. We both gave her that much stick (and loudly) about 'doing the right thing' and 'how would you feel' that she made the 'effort' and pushed it to the trolley bay a whole 4 car parks away.

Suprised she was middle class driving a late model SUV

Society is a slippin'

lol I always shame people who dont return their trolley. Its just lazy. I watched a young girl the other day in a newish Corolla who couldn't park for ****. Full lock crooked, tries again but with no improvement. Then she gets out and looks and gets back in to try again. She does this twice before shes satisfied with her efforts, although still crap. Useless.
I have also seen another woman doing something similar but clocked me watching so pulled out and drove away from the shops.

So who is this??? Come on own up

Hahaahaha ... that actually looks like it is taken on Paul Street North outside the Optus Campus in Macquarie Park .... that fenced off carpark behind (before it was resurfaced) looks identical ... and the same for the 30km/h marking on the street.

EDIT: ... yeah .. the edge of the building with the stones ... and the obligatory carton of ISOWIPES on the desk in the reflection .... has to to Optus Campus. I know all too well ... I frequent the place way too much.

My thoughts are that they both pulled in at the same time from opposite sides with the magna driver wanting to go right through (so could drive out nose first) and the Tuscon driver just wanting to park nose in.

Then I reckon both we're too stubborn to move their cars and that's where they stayed.

I thought I had seen some bad ones, but OP takes the cake.

I dont even wtf

These days you have to wonder if a lot of drivers have the capacity to park properly,
i was at a car park by the bay a couple of days ago,
parking both sides of the road, i was eating some tucker checkin out the ships parked out on the ocean(7 if your interested ),
i was parked across the road backed in on the unpopulated side of the road , because i did`nt want any of the "drivers" parking near my pride and joy,
i don`t usually take notice of how people park, but it became apparent a percentage don`t care how they park, but a very large percentage that actually tried to get their car parked properly, and you could see they actually took their time and and made an effort, but probably 70% could not park properly in the spot in one go to save their lives, some even had a go at parking better and ended up even worse.

Took this photo about two weeks ago while I was sitting in the bank.

The 'driver' of the black SUV had two goes at parking, got out and walked to the back of the car to check, and then walked off.

Angle parking!

[mik]

Does'nt surprise me Dave d.

[DJM83]

We have a 'Cant park for poo' thread on our XR5 forums, theres some stupid attempts.

[Yellow_Festiva]

Took these pics while in Paris:





Parking space must be at a premium!

In Korea they have a system where you can go to a shop and order a novelty number plate about half the size of a regular one with your phone number on it. If you park someone in you leave it on the dash and all they do is call you and you come to move your car.

Haha, funny this comes up now. Last night leaving a Maccas car park I was waiting behind a car to exit and realised it was empty. They parked ON TOP OF THE EXIT ARROW!! WTF. Perfectly parked in line with all the other cars but on the exit lane.. People just driving around it haha

That's brilliant! Of course it would only work in a society where people are polite to one another as a general way of acting in public...

Poor parking? Oh, the photos I could take just on a trip to nearby Blackwater or down to Rocky...

[OffRoadFalcon]

That is a very clever ad. I like it!
