    Cherrywood Ind estate. Without fail every day there will be someone parked where the A class is. not a space, driving area.

    To be fair, he's not the only plonker, looks like there's someone parked opposite him too.

    Total Fitness Sandyford, plenty of empty spaces around too.

    You have to wonder about the sanity of people who pay for gym membership (to take exercise) and then park selfishly at the gym door (to avoid taking exercise).

    Mallow on Saturday afternoon.

    For those unfamiliar with the place, this is just off the small roundabout at the end of the main street. The main street is a 1-way system which splits into 2 at the end, each lane being a turn in the relevant direction.

    Lad in the Merc came up from the right hand side, across the end of the main street (driving against the flow of traffic), and plonked his car with the ass almost blocking half the lane ... before wandering off up the street into one of the discount stores. First time I've ever seen someone parking in that particular spot (theres a large concrete flower pot on the far side of the Merc meaning even a Smart car would struggle to fit) and I've been driving through there for years now! :eek:

    Poor driver must have got confused with their 2 kids in the back, hence taking up 2x Parent & Child spots:rolleyes:

    folks, most of these seem to be about taking up two spaces, but what if the person couldn't even be bothered to drive into the space?

    failed or forgotten, that was our take on it when we had a laugh at it at the time

    but if you looka t the car, if it rolled backwards, it didn't come out of a spot, it's not lined up with any spot, even given the turned wheels

    will try and get a picture next time, not an example of bad parking more an example of stataing the bleeding obvious (although looking at this thread it might need explaning)

    in the quayside in sligo today, sign reads, 'please park within marked box' beside the compact/supermini spaces, just after i noticed another car taking up two of them, and it was one of the diagonal spaces, not as if their difficult to drive into.

    :D

    see them like that coming home from college every Tuesday night. Cars simply abandoned all over the road. Its the same at the end of Pierce St, parking are is always full so cars just dumped all over the place in front of it. Wonderful example set :)

    It's not just the double-yellow lines, she's parked partly on a footpath and beside a continuous white line and less than 15 metres from a junction. Not an 'advanced driver' methinks.

    Parked at a petrol station in Cavan

    Right over the entrance, and just where the a pillar starts from my car, is where the kerb raises again.
