We are so lucky to live in a place with parking spaces and there is no charge. Still living the dream.

Unbelievable...and not a good parking job either.

Maybe there was a car parked incorrectly on the other side of him and he had to fit his car in there like that.

I don't see the problem. That person has every right to park anyway he or she wants. That car belongs to the next person to visit heaven.

A lot of parking lots now have mostly compact spaces and even when they clearly mark larger parking spots the people in large vechicles don't use them. I had to crawl through the trunk to get into my Honda Accord more than once when picking it up from the park and ride when I worked.
Those of you who have to wait while my hubby backs up and shifts so the car will be perfect in-between the lines also seem to get impatient.

IMHO, it's wisest to keep calm and believe that Karma will prevail.

True, but I had a father too.

The father in our house was a cop. He damned well wouldn't like it.

Guess he wasn't a NYC cop.

Not saying you would but please don’t. That driver may truly have not realized he or she parked on an angle. It’s not always a case of “it’s all about me,” even if it is in this case – please don’t.

It’s ok to think it, but please don’t act on it. It all has to start somewhere, a vandalism here, a vandalism there and before you know it TV is no different than downtown Detroit or Chicago. We don’t live in a vacuum. Thanks.

Wow, reading a couple of these posts and it makes me very uneasy. Vigilantes scare me. Just sayin' :sad:

Villager Dude 11-06-2015 01:32 PM
Well I am not vindictive . I just shook my head along with others walking to and from their cars. Would never damage others property.

I almost thought this was amusing that someone would actually park that way and leave the car like that. The lady came out and moved her car and was so very embarrassed with all the bystanders watching her.

Oh Well

That's another example of "attitude" that I referenced above. the feels entitled to stop wherever he chooses.
