Note: If you park like this...

[RazorzEdge88]

...I am going to key, ram, scratch, dent, and spit on your vehicle.

[LeicsDom]

Why?
You can both get in and out of your cars

[loki81]

what if a car in the left space was parked super badly but left?

[RazorzEdge88]

what if a car in the left space was parked super badly but left?

[imaginethisinallcaps]then fucking park somewhere else and stop the cycle of madness![/allcapsjubsucks]

Addendum: Seriously, I get where you're coming from and I've shrugged it off a few times for that reason, but I just saw a situation where that almost certainly wasn't the case, and the person could've easily just parked elsewhere but chose to park like a dick in this one spot.

[BENDERBOY]

How idiotic.

[justanothershyguy]

It's trying to be a good maroon vehicle and not park like the white ones.

[RazorzEdge88]

Btw, I didn't take that pic. It's the best example I could find of "asshole with no regard for staying within lines."

[loveguys72]

Yeah, the CA licence plates kinda gave it away.

BTW, if you park like that, you ought not be driving in the first place.

[JockBoy87]

I am passive aggressive.

If I see that and it's the only place I can park, I will get up as close as possible to their car so it's difficult for them to get in. I don't care about my own vehicle getting scratched; it's an old hooptie. The only exception is if it looks as though they had no choice, for example if everyone else were parked that way, then I would understand.

[animalius]

Someone did that to me once, pretty much the same positions. Came back to my hometown from a train ride and there it was some asshole parked that close to my car. Even though I could get into the car, I was super annoyed.

[JP.]

That how I parked when the first time I drove my car- 14 yo :3

[Scealle]

^ Are you allowed to drive when your are 14? Lol! Dangerous I started driving at 17.

[JP.]

^
in my land you can do anything :3 My friends made fake Id's for convenient things such as drive or drinking booze
but I realize I wasn't a good driver back then

turn left!! Where!!?
skiiiiii.......(almost crash)

[Scealle]

^ Sounds dangerous
lol even though I managed to get my licence at 17, I only started driving when I go to college 18. By the time I had almost forgot everything lol. I had a lot of car accidents during my first year So much money spent on fixing that crappy car

[johaninsc]

I keep a supply of square heads in my glove compartment for occasions such as this...

[JohnJay201212]

No i dont .....

Grow up!

Thank fuck I don't drive.

[RazorzEdge88]

Grow up!

Thank fuck I don't drive.

Apparently you're okay with shitty driving, so thank fuck indeed.

[crimsonpaine]

Why not just cut the valve stems off

Meh ... whatever ... trivial first-world 'problems'.

And here you are bitching about them rather than helping some poor kids in sub-Saharan Africa.

The mind boggles...

[JockBoy87]

and spit on your vehicle.

Better not spit, your DNA can be matched if they report it to the cops.

[RazorzEdge88]

Yeah, I'm sure police departments everywhere are chomping at the bit to DNA test for minor car vandalism.

[JockBoy87]

If they believed a string of car vandalism were taking place, they just might, and they would have your DNA on record forever.

[GiancarloC]

I've seen worse.

I always try to park well enough and keep enough space for others. But then again I usually prefer parking on a corner space... one next to a curb or a tree...

[swerve]

Yeah, the CA licence plates kinda gave it away.

BTW, if you park like that, you ought not be driving in the first place.

Hey -- be nice!!!

I can back a tractor trailer into a spot with an inch clearance on either side...

BUT...

When it comes to driving my little pick up truck -- I have TROUBLE parking...

Maybe not THAT bad -- but pretty close some times...

[andyspete]

Razorz, you get my sympathy. I hate assholes who park like that. Can't stand the ones who drive like shit either. Almost everyday, I'm appalled at the poor driving habits of others. There is blatant disregard for their fellow drivers. I'm usually a very calm person who isn't easily angered. But I swear I have to fight getting road rage. People drive like shit and do the most annoying things on the road. I have several pet peeves:

1. 2 cars drive side by side on a four lane slightly under the speed limit. Cars line up behind them and the person in the left lane absolutely refuses to get over or speed up. Annoys the shit out of me!

2. People texting while driving. I see it all the time even though it is illegal in my state.

3. When someone pulls out in front of me and then accelerates like a 95 year old, when they could have waited 2 seconds and I would have passed and there's not a soul behind me. AHHHHH! Want to knock the shit out of these people.

When I see someone park like that, it ticks me off too. Would it kill somebody to be a little more courteous?

Okay is that actually a word where you live or does it just sound appropriate? Because it sounds appropriate, but I've never heard of that being a word, and I wonder if it is a regional thing.

Bad parking is not, however, a regional thing.

I have some tolerance when all the lines in the parking lot are under 3 cm of hard-packed snow. But even given allowances, there are a lot of idiot parkers out there. And they deserve what's coming to them, impoverished orphans notwithstanding.

[unloadonme]

How about if I park it like this?

Yes, it's pretty common in Maryland.

True... cos we all know that is impossible to do both.

Somebody was doing THIS to me on the highway the other day:



Needless to say, his brakes got a good test.

And the guy was tailgating me out of spite because I had the nerve to pass him when he was going kind of slowly. I could list like 94739 different ways people drive like assholes, but I think tops could be sum'd up with that jpeg of John Goodman from The Big Lebowski saying: "AM I THE ONLY ONE AROUND HERE WHO GIVES A SHIT ABOUT TURN SIGNALS!?!?"

[RazorzEdge88]

True... cos we all know that is impossible to do both.

Well, you've made your point. I hope it's made you feel better.

[GiancarloC]

Tail gating a-holes... I usually do evasive driving (as long as there are no cops around)... I pass other cars and switch lanes. Oh and when I switch lanes I am efficient about it. I don't take a mile to switch a lane...

That's something that really pisses me off. Look in the mirror, switch your lane and don't take a mile to do it. People here in California take forever to switch lanes... it's fucking annoying. The really annoying part of it is when they decide to use the signal light after the fact.

[LeicsDom]

And what about drivers on the other side of the road at night who drive with full headlights?

[GiancarloC]

Or those fucking blue lights I want to take a hammer to?

Get normal lights please... NOT blue lights. It's not like I need to read a book.

[loki81]

A+

in many areas, they're actually against the law, but it's not enforced at all (same with tinted front windows)... makes matters worse that few drivers ever seem to bother to adjust their headlights -- they should be pointed down at the road, NOT straight on into the eyes of other drivers.

I can kinda get the point of the super bright lights if you live out in the middle of nowhere with no/poor street lighting, but in NYC (and probably a lot of LA), you could drive without any headlights whatsoever.

my own major driving pet peeve.... if you're getting passed on the right, you're too far to the left. easy maxim that no one seems to follow.

[JockBoy87]

^^^ When an SUV or truck with bright headlights pulls up behind me at a light, I just tilt the side mirrors back at him.

[refujiunderground]

typical jersey shit. if you want a practice test on crazy driving, drive in jersey. if you think you're ready for the REAL DEAL, drive over to nyc. over there, people REALLY don't give a fuck especially those livery/taxi cab drivers. had a discussion about jersey drivers over on the jersey forum over at city-data.com sometime back. they were blaming all the new yorkers that moved over to jersey as if most of the bad jersey drivers aren't homegrown or learned how to drive in jersey. however, people really drive like they have nothing to live for in new york city though.

[HoodedRat]

Well, you've made your point. I hope it's made you feel better.
