Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Two car owners living up to the reputation of their car badges.

    The blue one is also blocking traffic as it's arse is sticking out.

    In the church car park opposite Vincent's hospital, D4 today. Car left in neutral and handbrake disengaged, could have been a worse outcome than the clamp fee.

    Thanks to Concannon Electrical and other commercial drivers for blocking assorted footpaths this morning.



  • Registered Users Posts: 357 ✭✭pandabat


    Ahh the caring nature of parents in the school environs. All cars here are parked/stopped although at least the Opel's driver stayed in the car while being in the middle of nowhere. Same can't be said for the Ford or the Skoda who just sort of left it there in the T-junction.

    Dundrum library. Wouldn’t want to be in a wheelchair or pushing a buggy. Huge empty driveway in front of it.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73,478 ✭✭✭✭colm_mcm


    (stupid platform won’t let me delete top photo.) Car park around the back of this place but they park on the footpath instead

    Two vans and one car, choosing to park on the footpath, while visiting houses with ample driveways.

    It's not just Dunnes in Ireland where people park like twats. Dunnes in Spain has the same idiots

    For my sins the horrible Peugeot in the background kindly left a dent in my drivers door 😪

    How to correct this? It was ok before upload



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,095 ✭✭✭Gregor Samsa


    I call this the ghost triple park.

    Parallel parking spaces outside the school, Scenic is obviously parked properly. Car circled in red is double parked outside the spaces. Why are they not parked in the empty space? Because if they did, someone as inconsiderate as themselves would double park outside them, blocking them in for precious minutes, of course! So ghost double parking in the middle of the road is more convenient. And very common in this area. That's bad parking number one, but very common here (I've posted examples before).

    But the Hyundai circled in yellow has taken it a step further. There probably was a car double parked outside the Scenic. The Hyundai then came along and triple parked outside of it. That car that was there was able to pull out and head off. Leaving the Hyundai triple parked right out in the middle of the road - but triple parked against a ghost car. Of course it wouldn't occur to them to maneuver into the slightly less stupid double parking position. There was someone in the car, engine off, and they made absolutely no attempt to move or apologise to all the traffic they inconvenienced on both sides of the road. They have their "spot" - literally straddling the white line with a full car's width to the left - and they're sticking to it, damnit!

    My car is better than everyone's else's! Paul Street, Cork City.

    Ignorant, careless drivers park in Supervalu Tubbercurry, Co Sligo

    Another of many examples…’Why park straight when I can park just anyway I want’

    This driver shouldn’t have a licence if they can’t do the very basic parking in an empty cark park!

    Why park in a normal space in a normal way like a loser when you can park across 2 spaces including a disabled bay?

    Bonus points for hazard lights.




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,767 ✭✭✭eljono


    Pushing a buggy or in a wheelchair? Tough sh1t.




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,123 ✭✭✭Mundo7976


    I'm a cnut with a new rover so I must take 2 spaces!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,239 ✭✭✭Be right back


    Dunnes stores just seems to attract them!

    There must have been something about this space in Airside yesterday. We arrived and the BMW was taking up two spaces. We went into Smyths, came out about 20 minutes later and the Merc was in the exact same space doing the same thing. My sub 5 year old daughter was keen to demonstrate how they were being selfish.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,299 ✭✭✭✭gammygils


    Tuam Shopping Centre the bellend in the Toyota would rather park with over half his car blocking a lane than use the carpark 100 metres away . Genius

    UCHG on Sunday with parking spaces really scarce and some eejit does this

    Centre of the footpath. Pedestrians, wheelchairs and buggies will hardly want to use this space.

    Wouldnt park in a disabled space, but would happily block the entry/exit route from the store to the car park

    Within feet of each other. Taxi driver was sitting in car awkwardly parked on hatching on the inside of a tight-ish, blind-ish corner making it a little bit more of each despite a multitude of spaces being available just next to him.

    Buggy? Wheelchair? Screw you use the other side of the road

    the other side of the road




  • Registered Users Posts: 357 ✭✭pandabat


    Getting a bit out of line at Dunnes Ballyvolane

    Unable to fit your tiny car inside one oversized disabled space - no bother, take two instead. To be fair, they did at least have a badge displayed 🙄

    Bronze CW-reg Kia 2 rows back and the red Insignia to the right also weren't quite able to get it 100% correct

    Not the worst offender ever, but a good 3 feet from the bumper to the kerb.


    Return to the test centre please.
