Tesco, Mitchelstown. Hopped out, not bother to him. No sign of a wheelchair pass. And obviously plenty of spaces behind him. Grr.

Newly renovated footpath in Ballinteer, so the locals are doing their best to crack it up again.

I have to be honest and admit i called someone out where i live for doing this exact thing. Took a pic, and he asked why, told him that he had no badge and looked in fine health and he flipped, gave me a bunch of abuse and walked into the cinema.. came out 2 mins later gave me look and moved the car and came over again " I have a badge at home rar rar rar" i replied " not much use at home now is it"! he took a phot of my car and left... muppet

Parked in a bus lane? Check

Block a cycle path? Check

Block a footpath? Check

In front of the Gardai? Check

Gardai turn a blind eye? Check

Out beside the National Show Centre in Swords today. All in to get their COVID booster jabs, but decided to dump their cars anywhere rather than wait. Between them and queue jumpers there was plenty of chaos.

Room to spare.

Was harder to park that way

Kildare village about 10:00

This isn’t really typical bad parking, but I spotted this Vitara parked yesterday with one wheel hanging onto the kerb by the edge of the tyre, and the rear wheel hanging in the air. Later on it was gone, but when I passed again today it was back in the exact same spot, balancing on the kerb in the exact same way. Not obvious from the pic angle, but the rear wheel isn’t touching the ground. To do that separately on two consecutive days in the same place takes some special skill.

Mightn’t look the worst here, but it’s pretty bad. Cars in Clarecastle unfortunately often use the cycle lane for parking or else half-arse it with half/footpath half/road

I think the below is really poor though and dangerous. Walked past it and it’s still there two hours later. Visibility there is pretty poor and you can see cars driving past it really having to go into the other lane - Lot of buses in the village too so it’s poor I think.

A reminder that this is a No Chat thread - no commenting on other people's pics (no matter how tempting it is!). I'd ask you all to re-familiarise yourself with the points in the OP which I have linked to above. Thanks.

Terrible parking ..... but i suppose at least he left the footpath clear .... :)

passatman86 · 10-12-2021 02:16PM

Mods can we sneak a comment or two on this one as im undecided if its bad parking or not, the gards went in and got their coffees then came back out lol

eljono · 11-12-2021 03:28PM

Seriously lazy parking. Not only are they taking two spaces, they also left the nose jutting out by close to a meter.

neris · 14-12-2021 01:31PM

School collection and this lads decided to half block the path and half block someone's driveway. Lad on a bikes come up the little pathway a minute and nearly turned into the back of him.

HildaOgdenx · 16-12-2021 11:59PM

Ah shure there's two spaces, I will throw it in the general direction of both. Busy car park and shure tis near Christmas 🙄...

Sexual Chocolate · 20-12-2021 11:43PM

Was no way of me getting out if anyone parked beside me. Seen him drive it into the car park like it was stolen, absolute dickhead.

MarkR · 23-12-2021 01:33PM

Merry Christmas to all. Except for the drivers of these vehicles.

Plenty bad parking around today. This was one of the milder ones.

AndrewJRenko · 23-12-2021 06:02PM

I guess it must have been hard to see the plant on the double yellow line

AndrewJRenko · 24-12-2021 08:51AM

Supervalu Ballinteer. It's not like parking places are at a premium today, or anything.

AndrewJRenko · 24-12-2021 09:17AM

Merry Christmas to all except the selfish git at Supervalu Ballinteer who decided that they're more important than people on foot because they have a car. Car park wasn't even full yet.

KevRossi · 27-12-2021 04:07PM

Petrol pumps on the right. Just rolled through and dumped it there, so you need to drive around them to get to the parking or to get out. Loads of free parking all around. Disappeared for 10 mins into the shop to boot. Very busy with people returning home as well.

Just ignorant and all to save them walking 20m extra.

Dr Turk Turkelton · 27-12-2021 07:38PM

Think the owner here needed a few more N plates!

Bray seafront today with spaces at a premium.

its a designated piece of tarmac that clearly designed for 2 cars. This knobend decides to take both.

This legend

Donabate beach at 10.30 this morning. The white and silver cars are all parked on the main entrance/exit lane. They are parked on the matting that prevents the place tuning to muck (may be hard to see the matting). The black pick up won't be winning any awards for parking soon either.

Loads and loads of free parking spots 30m away, but that's too far, which is ironic seeing as they are going there for a walk. So now everyone has to enter/exit in the space between them and the red car. Which leads to queue's getting in and out when there should be none.

No mats there where the cars now drive out, so it just gets churned up. This happens every.fcuking.day. that I go there. Zero policing, zero enforcement.
