Worst parking ever?

MisterTee · 4th May 2008, 17:17

Where I work I overlook the office car park. Every now and again I see some truly poor examples of parking within the marked bay, this Toyota Celica seems to be pretty bad at it... its a lady driver, and these are just a selection...

Well I find it amusing.

Don't think I'd want to park near her!

Jack The Lad. · 4th May 2008, 17:32

You had a heavy work load on that day then, MisterTee.

Dimplyred · 4th May 2008, 17:34

Looks like some of the parking attempts on my works car park.

I park right away from it all, where no-one else parks, it's ok until it rains.

I'd prefer to get wet however than risk it.

She never seems to get it quite right, does she?

MisterTee · 4th May 2008, 17:45

I'll have you know I'm quite busy at work. The time she diagonally parked across 2 bays almost made me fall out of my hammock in disbelief!

This is the worse parking ever !! and I am going to post it under the young drivers thread too seeing as the idiot that parked this today looked about 12 !!!!

Jack The Lad. · 4th May 2008, 20:09

Was probably the Estate Agent.

Its the house next door, the owner has let some young lads move in whilst its on the market (joy)!! This is how the idiot parked because his friends were both parked outside my house

I tried knocking but they were playing music too loud so I text my old neighbour a photo and 10 miniutes later it was moved.

Anyway dont you know estate agents drive cars with the best badges

That is so bad it must be a joke?! How could you pass your driving test if you can't judge where your car is going to come to a halt

Its actually a very good method to stop people from parking next to you and potentially damaging your car. Maybe i'll try it at work

Parking in two spaces - yes.
Parking with a good portion of the car in the "lane" outside the space - err...no.

Kremmen · 5th May 2008, 05:43

Parking has always been a forgotten art for some people.

Perhaps they should take the bus ?

Parallel parking yes but parking in a normal space!!! All you need is a bit of spacial awareness and the ability to stop the car within a couple of feet of a given point

It's quite entertaining though, watching them

Definitely they should. If it was as easy to get a gun license as it is to get a driver's license we would all get shot within one week.
I must add however that sometimes a car parked across the line is the last one left of 3 wrong parked cars and perhaps had no choice because the 2 guys on his sides already were parked wrongly and his gap was the only one left. In Poznan (Poland) I've seen an effective (yet brutal) solution to this problem: between the parking spaces there are 2-inch steel pipes some 40 cm high, along the lines. Try to park across
