Mod post Please refrain from talking about any types of car vandalism

Upvotes

Pretty simple refrain from talking about Anything that breaks the law this includes keying, spray painting (graffiti), slashing tires, smashing windows/lights, denting bodywork, or pouring substances (sugar, sand) into the gas tank, sabotaging parts of the car, etc. I am getting pretty tired of clearing the queue and probably so are the other mods. You will get a few warnings (Could be a 1-7 day ban) before a potential permanent ban. Reporting does help. If you have any questions please comment and I will answer them.

How do I get this car towed?

If I can't cross here, then I have to ride my wheelchair a whole block to get back on the sidewalk. That's what I usually wind up doing, but last night I just got fed up and I decided I'm going to get this car towed. I call the police non-emergency number. Waited 20 minutes or so. Never got an answer. What do I do?

Arrow points to the cutaway.

Witnessed this guy whip it into the parking lot of a brewery, slam on his breaks, double park the long way (one of the spots being handicap parking), leave his driver door open, all to rush inside and get a cold brew coffee and speed off.

Neighbor Consistently Parks Badly

Thumbnail

Upvotes

My neighbor consistently parks over the line, crooked, and way too close to my vehicle making it incredibly difficult to get in and out. Our building has assigned spaces and even though the parking space next to them is almost always open, they still park like this. I don’t understand how someone can even park this badly and then not realize or care enough to repark and just walks away from their car like that. What would you do?

Edit to add and answer some questions: some of you who are saying this car is parked fine and the problem is my “big truck” which is completely stock, not lifted or modified in any way clearly aren’t looking at all 3 pictures. Steering wheels are both on the left side. No my neighbor is not elderly or disabled. This is an able bodied woman in her 20s-30s. Does not have children, therefore no baby seat or anything like that. We have parking for people with disabilities. She is usually alone in the vehicle sometimes accompanied by a man (similar age, able bodied, normal size) presumably her partner.

Saw this at the office a few years ago. Thought I’d share. Took the picture because I knew whose car it was. And she was as insufferable as the parking suggests.

Grocery store just blatently parking in handicap without a permit and 100% not disabled.

ETA: there is no handicap plate and the people leaving the car looked like they work out every day. They were in no way handicap. I have a pic of the plate but you can't upload identifying info on the sub and I can't add pics now anyway.

Heres is the redacted plate...

Where is it ok to take up multiple spaces??

Upvotes

First I'm sure this is going to get a few people incensed and for that I'm sorry.

But truthfully, where is it okay to take up multiple spaces so you can ensure that inconsiderate drivers will not give you a door ding?? I have a brand new vehicle, first vehicle I've driven off the lot with zero miles. I'm very proud and protective of it. Personally I do not park close, I park far out. I typically look for an end of the row spot so that I can hug the curb on the left or right and give myself enough room to hopefully not get dinged.

For the record I'm completely against most of the asshats featured in the sub. If you're within a 1-200ft of the door you should Park normally within your lines.

But we all have to acknowledge with as many shitty parkers as there are there are in equally shitty amount of people that don't mind dinging someone's car.

Just curious what the consensus is so that I can make sure I don't ruffle too many feathers.

Bad Parking Sticky Notes

Post image
Upvotes

Thought you guys might get a kick out of these 😂

My wife and I created S.L.A.P.P. Notes after seeing one too many ridiculous parking jobs. They’re funny bad-parking sticky notes you can peel and stick on the window to get your point across — they peel right off and leave no damage.

Petty justice, one sticky note at a time. 😂

Considering some of the parking jobs posted here, we figured you guys might appreciate them.

If anyone wants to check them out, they’re available on Amazon: https://a.co/d/07Q1uoR5

What can we do about this?

EDIT: For entertainment purposes more than anything, we’ll deal with it just wanted to expose the entitled!

This is straight outside our place of work we can’t take deliveries or send goods out, we can’t even leave work which the workshop will be doing in an hour and a half. Completely unreasonable to expect our staff or delivery men to mount the curb to make it into our yard. The gate has been open all day too so there is no excuse of “Well your gate was shut when I arrived”. Worst thing is there is plenty of on road parking on our work estate we even have a second closed gate 25 meters to the left of the side on picture which is still not acceptable as that gate is used for steel trucks to bring in materials albeit less frequently than our parcel deliveries and couriers who take goods away from our premises. It is Friday too and most of the companies on this industrial estate leave early so there are tonnes of space along the road.
