Not just disregarding the No Parking paint, but to have the gall to cross the line into my mate's disability spot. At a club in Mt Pritchard NSW.

My friend is an absolute legend, he gets in and out his car and transfers his wheelchair unassisted, as long as he has the space to do it. And he was pretty chill about this too. Not like me, I was quite ropable, I went into the reception and told them as much. They just politely called out the number plate over the club PA system, that's it. It's lucky I was there to help him out today.

Just posting cos if you ever see anyone park like an absolute garbage human like this person did, you take the time out of your day to call them out on it.

  1. they’re parked in a no parking zone, so they straddled the disabled parking space to try and pretend they belonged there

  2. sorry but that’s the problem? i can’t see what he did wrong (maybe because i’m not a driver)

  3. That’s bad, but what’s worse is people who abuse other people’s Blue Badges (I’m sure you must have similar down there). Blue Badges are registered to a person, not to a vehicle (as many people seem to think) and I’ve seen people who are obviously a carer for a disabled person, using their badge to get a parking spot which is close to the supermarket, for example. You ***CANNOT*** use the badge unless the person to whom it’s registered is in the car. To do so is an offence.

    I do have to say that disabled space doesn’t look all that wide, usually, up here, they’re at least ½ times as wide again as a standard space.

    I have a disability parking permit and this is SO common. Especially for people who just ‘need a second’, so they think they can get away with it by occupying half the disabled spot rather than fully parking in it illegally. Don’t understand the logic.

    You know exactly what type of person parks like that, but tbh they probably lack the warmth and depth

  6. So many boot lickers here, i hope the person who parked like that gets there well deserved karma.

  7. Man, I try very hard to avoid even parking in a normal bay if it’s next to the acrod one. Too many experiences of helping relatives etc get in and out when there isn’t quite enough room.
