I watched this gentleman very carefully as he parked, since my bike was locked to the railing directly behind.   What I didn't quite capture is that, in amongst some minor fuds, he has pretty much blocked three spaces.

I do have a tendency to lock the bike on the other side of the railings..

Be careful if you film or photograph people who park like fuds - it's illegal you know!

Absolutely brilliant! Utter wankers. Now they are universally recognised as wankers. I do hope the old bill were called. Anyone know?

Reassuring that you, Steph et al can laugh at this. I found the driver's arrogance, abuse and sheer nastiness quite disturbing  :-\

If you search her business on Google maps, it shows a clip from the video in the 'bubble' about the business.

She was very abusive, and her husband threatened violence, but I do also think the man who made the video was going a bit too far. Not that that excuses her.

This morning at Tibshelf services southbound.  If you look closely you will notice most cars are parked in the marked bays and are aligned North / South.  The dick in the little Vw has parked East/West and has managed to actually cover part of six ( yes six) separate parking spaces!!! Clever ::-)

That's a talent!  Mind you, Tibshelf is the worst service station ever.

So did I, but I can also chortle with glee when, for once, one of those arrogant, abusive, nasty arseholes gets some payback.

Oh, I've been to those and some other dives, but I thought Tibshelf took the prize.

btw, OT:

This morning, Figges (Pigges) Marsh







Note bollard.

I had it easy.  Coming from the other direction to the awkward turn already fucked up by bollards, you had this:



Can't see it yet?  I'll go forward a bit



Still no?  A bit more, but we're almost on the turn



Ah.  There's the fucker.

This place is almost unlit, the car is black, and has no side reflectors.  Thank fuck it was light.

Bless. >:(

That cannot be parked.  Much more likely to be twocced and abandoned.  Thieves will be back later if police or owner or insurer haven't reclaimed it by then.

No.  No signs of twocking.  For information, the residents of the road you can see alongside the common used to park on the common itself, till the council built a high ridge of earth all the way along.  It's now replaced with a row of bollards, but this is residents parking.
