Cool car, dumb dude

Our family spotted this guy's green car hogging two parking spots during a very busy, weekly Market Fest. Parking places are at a premium, dude! Doi hey!

I have seen cars "keyed" for that. It is a costly repair if you park like this and somebody puts a deep "V" down the side of your car. I wonder if this car was ever keyed?

Somebody was in a hurry!

That has got to be one of the most annoying things, especially if parkings are hard to find, it happens here a lot too.

This does rub me the wrong way. However, equally frustrating are the door dings because, many people don't care if they bang the car next to them. Two door cars are the worst for dinging the car next to them.

Love the grandmothers from China. They are so fit and trim. No fast food diets there!

Thank you for always leaving such positive comments on our blog. Your commitment to being a good citizen rings through in cyberspace.

Someone will GET this car... and NOT in a good way. What goes around, comes around. Tsk, tsk, tsk.

This person is probably trying to keep people from parking too close and dinging the car with their door. It is annoying though and I think it makes their car more likely to get keyed like Abe said.

I initially thought that maybe he parked this way so he would not get door dings, but after reading the comments above about getting keyed, that is not a good idea for avoiding door dings.

Maybe he just parked this way so that his care would get noticed. Isn't that why people drive cars like this?

While I hate when they do take to spot if I were that owner I would more concerned with people who show no pride in their own car that they will just ding it. And look it, it is a beauty.

Often, people who have a big beautiful car think they are allowed to do everything...
What a pity.

Many danes use two p-places - I think its a kind of not thinking or lost social skills. It is quite a modern phenomenon.

Perfectly parked, if over here. As the do stand even on right and left of the street, many times in two rows and noone is doing anything.

A safe road ahead and a nice Sunday for you all.

Love the car Leif. Wonder if they were in a hurry, just thoughtless or didn't want anyone else parking too close. Would be a price to pay if the car was keyed. This has happened to me, even though the car was parked in the car bay - I had just picked up a new car from the dealer that day. Can never tell how some people will have their fun. Enjoy the remainder of your weekend.

Not really nice parking like that ... but it's a Chevrolet, right? I love Chevrolets! Chevrolet is making a come back in the international market. They are starting to gain popularity in Indonesia. I would really love to own a Captiva. The diesel version is so fuel efficient, 1 ltr for 12 kms. Two of my office colleagues already own them, another one is about to buy one.

he has a lot of nerve not only to be parking like that but also to drive a car like that

It strikes a nerve, but it's certainly pretty funny! Maybe the driver isn't used to humility. It's either that, or he just didn't pass Parking 101. That calls for a ticket!
