Stuck out from the parking space you mean? The owner should be flogged for such poor parking skills!

just my opinion of course (hopefully some council types have better taste winkeye )

I have a nasty tendancy to park away from other cars, for fear of some twat, could equally be either a man or woman, of giving me some nice door dings...

Got to say I always park across two spaces but miles away from the store. When Im in my daily driver I always park far away but only take up one space. No matter how quiet the car park is you will alway find some twat parking next to you when you return.

Might get flamed for this, but I usually park in the parent and child spaces, not because they are close to the door, because sometimes they aren't, but because they are nice and wide so its too far away for the careless knob in the car next to you to open their door into the side of your car.

Why should i be excluded from using them just because I haven't got kids? I just want to keep my nice car nice.............

im quite happy with disabled and those stupid parent and child spaces....less ignorant fucks parking in normal spaces :roll:

some guy took me on for parking in 2 spaces....i told him to fuck off and he then walked to his car and dinged the one next to him with his door :evil:

far easier to park well away from everyone else and walk the extra 2 minutes :D

For me, the angel eyes were the step too far. I could probably live with the front apart from that.
