Car Park Madness!

(1/4) > >>

I drove into town today with my family and whilst attempting to park in two city center car parks was met with scenes of disbelief......

Firstly a blinkered driver caused a complete block of traffic because he had seen a space about to be vacated (almost ten minutes later), he was stopped so close to the exiting car that the driver had to carry out a 9 point turn just to escape......

Secondy in another car park (got too angry in the first), a car drove into the car park entrance and stopped.......The driver then got out of the car and walked arround the car park (I am guessing to look for an available space) as rapidly a queue of cars (including my own) were backing up onto the duel carriageway.

Am I getting too sensitive here or is there no such thing as manners in a car park?

The thing was though, when a space was cleared the car second in line sped into the space before the other bloke had time to get back into his and get it..................................A punch-up was very close.

I could'nt help laughing inside (my sadistic side I'm affraid!)

Like the second car park bit.  Now that to me is justice.

you aint too sensitive mate. we were out shopping just before xmas and decided to stop at a pizza hut restraunt as we were starvin. i pulled into the car park and it was full. so i pulled over to the side with headlights on and engine running to wait for a space while viks took our son william in to get a seat. after 5 mins a couple came to get in their car after a nice meal. so i waited patiantly to get into their space,. the car park is quite a tight one at the best of times . but no sooner had they reversed out of their space this little old lady came around me and attempted to get in to the space. she was blocking them in and blinding herself in my headlights. i thought being xmas i would let it pass......even though i was fumming.
the next thing i see is a couple coming out of the restaurant to get in their car and this little old woman waving to someone in a car at the enterance of the car park ( more family in another car ) that this space was going to be availible. i made sure i blocked it this time though  :evil:
when i parked in the space the little old lady decided to give me grief for ....get this " stealing her familys space "  :shock:  :shock:

has everyone in the world gone mad i wonder

Had a lully one just before Chrimbo.

I pulled into a parking space where theres just enough room for the Landy to park without encroaching on the double yellows - they're bleeders for that in Southend.  Immediatly behind me the pavement protrudes into the road and theres a lamppost there so no chance of me backing up.  When I cam back there was a people carrier in front of me, on the yellows, backed right up to the bumper.  There was about 8 inches between mine and his.  So I put the Landy in low range and created enough room for me to get out.

Seemed fair to me.

jiffyman:
'created enough room, :lol:  I like that phrase!! :lol:
