Re: Parking Lots / Parking Spaces
Why is it that no matter where I pick to park my Crossfire someone has to park closely right next to it even when every other space is open? This really pisses me off and it seems to happen often!! Today I stopped at a bakery for a cake and some dumb *** woman parked her mini van right next to my car so close that her passenger rear tire was over the line in my space. Let me mention that there were 8 other spaces to the left she could have chosen. Then she proceeded to get out and come around to get her little kid out and didn't have enough room to walk between her van and my car. So she gets back in her mini van and backs up and moves it over about a foot and pulls back into the exact same space again and gets out and gets the kid out and comes into the bakery where I am standing and have been watching her every move out in the parking lot. I wanted to ask her what her problem was but my wife didn't want me to cause a seen as she new I was ready to ream her a new A**hole by now. I always try to park away from other cars but it never fails some A**hole parks right next to me. I am proud of the no ding condition of my Crossfire and would like to keep it this way. Anybody else feel my frustration ??
I would love to hear from others here in the forum.
I'm just like you are about this; but you wording makes it sound as if you are parked in front of the business which would not be defensive parking.
I would never park diagonally in two spaces.(asking for trouble) However, I do park "off" just enough to make any idiot not want to be next to me. I also know in most places I frequent which areas of the lots do not tend to fill : and even more so in decks. Speaking of those, when going to a doctors appt., I park on the very top or quite close to it. I would guess that seventy percent of ill or elderly should not be driving to the doctor ...or at all.
A fellow defensive parker,
