How close to the junction?

Yup… Elbee sent this, and yes, that silver car is parked on a junction and also blocking a dip allowing pushchairs and wheelchairs up…. not that the dip will help people along their way as the black saloon car is parked across the pavement, as is the small silver compact car further down the path…

A jungle of crap parking!

Friendly Fire

AMCD sent this through via the ParkWrong Flickr pages… I don’t know the legalities involved here… but it’s one to ponder.

If it had been anyone else, it would point blank be wrong…

Spotted in Australia

The far reach of bad parking! I thank MG for sending in these pictures – Some great examples of people who think they are above the highway codes… and of course, yet another exotic car driver making other exotic car drivers look bad…

Hi Warden,

I used these these pics to get out of a parking ticket. I work as a contractor for Australia Post, and have a van with signage which allows me to park in Mail Zones, which are restricted to Australia Post vehicles.

I got a parking ticket in a Mail Zone, went to court with these photos and got off the ticket. This sort of arrogant parking really pisses me off. I take great delight in seeing them get ticketed, which does happen. I particularly like the Suzuki Swift, it’s in both a Mail Zone and a No Stopping zone. The Porsche I took because it’s a such a hot looking car, but it is parked on the footpath.

Regards – MG

Virgin Dick

Let’s take a 90 degree blind bend opposite a junction…

Add a crossing point and half up on the pavement one Virgin idiot driven van.

What do you get? A van that is perfectly stickered up for where it is parked, as this is one place it will really cause a near miss…

The driver may not be Richard Branson, but he’s still a Dick of sorts…

La la la, I don’t care….

So the road is wide enough to let one car through at a time… so why not park on the pavement and make it awkward for both other drivers and pedestrians…. and lets throw in blocking visibility on a junction… yup… this parker has it all.

Bump and Park

Bumping up the kerb as you reverse park can’t be any good for your wheels and attached parts (steering for one)… yet this driver does the opposite of the “3 foot from the kerb” park manoeuvre!

Sure, they aren’t in the way of anyone, but it’s still bad parking…
