I walked out to my car in the parking lot, and saw this...



I just don't understand how somebody could just... have so little respect. Really, you couldn't back out and try again?! Not only is the car fractions of an inch from my Fit (literally, I think there was 1/4" between my bumper and his/her car), but I couldn't back out (or go forwards either).

I think it was pure luck my Fit escaped damage, because I don't think somebody skilled enough to park that closely would have done it.

I did make it out, but it was tiiiiiight.

 

damn!

print this out to put under their wiper next time:

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^I'm printing that out and keeping copies in my car.

 

What an asshat. Would make me consider keying the shit out of their car.

 

Take off the valve cap and let the air out of all the tires!

 

Sad as it sounds I see shit like that in California ALL the time. Lots of clowns out here in their big ass SUV's. They can afford it, but don't bother to learn how to DRIVE it or PARK it.

 

How did that driver do that?? I'm looking closely at the photo and not seeing tire marks through the snow leading into that parking space. Did they back into it??? Weird.

nah im ruthless. I have no sympathy for douches or asshats on the same public road or parking lots i coexist in.

you like jolly ranchers? grab a bag, suck on a few. get them nice and warm and start melting in your mouth. take them out of your mouth and simply place them on his windshield.

when he attempts to remove, shit gets real. enjoy

 

Hmm. That is exactly why I choose to park at end spots and never park next to other cars.

 

There's some, though due to the angle of the camera they don't seem to line up (you can see the one for the right rear tire).

I don't think they could have backed in, since there were cars all around...



This does sort of make me wonder -- what are you supposed to do if you CAN'T get out? Call the police/security?

 

If you can get the police to tell you whose car it is maybe you can find them and make them move it.

Alternatively in an emergency you could maybe jack up their car and push it off the jack a couple of times if there's room on the other side of their car.

But you could always get into the car if you can open your door a few inches by lowering a window and climbing in, or by climbing in through the hatch.

 

That just makes me angry looking at it lol

Keep a couple crappy metal drafting pens handy for pricks like that.

Did this one day when my 6'4 285lb sciatic ass had to climb through the hatch to leave school and I got parked in so tight I couldn't get through the passenger door because I had the car up against a wall on one side in the attempt to avoid such a scenario. No such luck, apparently.

Disclaimer: do not do this...

Pick a tire, if possible, that the driver will not notice from the building you think they were in. This way they might start to drive on said flat tire and further ruin it.

Or stab 2 tires and it won't matter...

Step 1.) Stab tire with pen

Step 2.) Leave pen in tire, remove ink cartridge

Step 3.) Drive away inconspicuously, giggling.

 

Oh, I got into my car alright, it's just getting my car out of the spot that was problematic. I realize it's hard to tell where the car is in the pic above, so here's my amazing Paint skills at work (slow link, wait for it):


Basically, I couldn't pull straight back out of my spot. I have limited room in front and to the right. I managed to get out after about 10 s-turn maneuvers, and folding in my side mirror, but I could imagine being less lucky and having less space on my right or in front and getting stuck... this is at a fairly long term lot (i.e. people usually park here for the whole day, so it may have been a couple of hours before the owner came back).

 

i'm a print broker, if you need business cards like the one above i print and ship them cheap lol

glad you were able to get out of that without any damage to your fit. some douché at a chipotlé parked next to me in a similar angle -- i even made eye contact with the jerk as he was stepping out of his car and i was getting into mine. good thing i was in my daily-beater ef9 at the time so his passenger side door got lots of love from mine

 

Keep in mind it could also have been some old lady who was totally oblivious to the whole thing. Not saying that would excuse her behavior but it's slightly less negligent than someone who noticed and just didn't care.

 

imo, whether they're a 16 year old high school hipster or a sweet 90 year old old lady passing out hard candies from her purse, people who are that disconnected from common sense driver courtesy shouldn't have a license in the first place.

 

Uhh where can I order that business card?? Would love to buy some...please

 

this is the ultimate website
youparklikeanasshole.com

you can print pdf's as parking tickets and tick checkboxes about which law they broke lol

 

i'll send you a PM

 

Charlie I must have some business cards please
