Why can't people park their cars?

Seems like everywhere I go, some IDIOT uses more than one parking space to park! What gives? For those with no concept of how much room your vehicle takes up....just stop driving it...get something realy, realy freakin' small or take a cab or something!!! Those of you who think you are justified to take up 2 or 4 parking spaces because you are afraid someone will ding your car...just leave it in the garage or drive something else!!! One time I got my opportunity to watch a 'better than thou' driver parked diagonally in a single row taking 2 spaces squirm. Yeah, I parked in the very next space and hoped he'd come ask me to move! I was at a McDonalds and I sat at the window so I could get a great view, and it was awesome. It took the MF litteraly 10 minutes to get out...I laughed my azz off. I was hoping he would come in and say something, because I'd have told him to go F himself....he was the dumbazz that parked that way.

    Yes, I have also noticed that. It seems that some people are in such a hurry these days, that once they pull in to a parking space, they won't take to time to adjust their vehicle so that it fits within the lines, they just have no time for that. Sometimes, I am very tempted to get a hammer and hammer in the part of the car that is sticking out from the yellow lines, just to teach them a lesson about common courtesy.

    Of friend of mine had an apartment with a balcony right down the street from the university, so on warm summer nights, he'd have friends over to kick back with some beers and watch people desperately try to parallel park in spaces four cars long, but give up after bumping the curb twice, or driving the wrong way down the one-way street. Especially when the bars closed, it was non-stop entertainment.

    Two words, expressing one concept: Depth Perception. It can be hard to know precisely where the cutting edge of your right rear bumper is.

    Also, a lot of people can't look at 2 mirror reflections while driving backwards, trying to thread the needle between two close objects. It happens.

    But I am making excuses. I have been very angry with bad parkers. And I'll just say this: It's not a productive place to be. Just asking: Do bad voters or bad shoppers or bad orderers in fast food restaurants or bad conversationalists or bad dressers or bad users of the public parks bother you too? There's PLENTY to spread the spleen around about, brother!

    maximum persons have cut-off dates (a million-2 hours depending) or pay and reveal. they don't verify because frequently they have cameras which list once you come back in and out, i have been stuck in this in the previous as I left my vehicle to go procuring and went over by 20 minutes. the finished guess in case you want to carry a vehicle is to park it to a suburb in London on merely an straightforward street and then get a prepare into the city. My aunt works contained in the city and drives her vehicle to the prepare station honestly anybody morning yet there changed into no park areas so she parked in the front of someone's abode close to the station (they'd no force) yet they nonetheless were given indignant about it and positioned canines poo on her vehicle (definite disgusting i comprehend!) yet nonetheless your astounding guess if you're looking for loose parking.

    I think people so do not care about who else is on the road. Litterally the road has seemed to be a competition to many, and a race to what could be the finish. Ignorance has completed their lives so they don't really respect who they kill, or block usage of transportation space with concerning others. So yeah, I totally agree, I so feel your own rage.

    Unlike you, I never assume that the guy who parked jabber-wocky is at fault unless I was there when they did it. Sometimes I do it because the driver beside me did it, and if I want a space, I have to squeeze into what's left. It happens.

    I tend to choose my battles, and not let something as small as a parking space catch me on fire.

    come on, you don't need to waste your points on a question you know the answer to. People are very lazy. It also depends on who is your instructor for your road test. I know this one girl who passed her drivers test and she hasn't even been driving for a year and she has gotten into 5 accidents, and totaled her car, and my friend failed his road test for not being observant enough. Life is never fair.

    I agree people can not park these days. There are a very few who do park properly. We are lucky to have them. They should teach others a lesson on how to park.

    Most people don't care about anyone but themselves. This is the same reason why so many people drive poorly on the road.

    Because there are people out there that lack concideration or common sense. I can't stand it when people park right on your bumper and then think you can pull out, or those that don't use the turn signal.
