A friend took her paraplegic son to the hospital recently and was greeted with this site. This ahole took up four handicapped spots. The odd thing is that that parking lot is huge and he could have parked this rig just a few hundred feet away without inconveniencing anyone.

I'm sorry, I would have raised hell & had that chit removed, and then, kept raising hell until the owner was given a ticket for each spot

I would have removed the pin from his receiver until the police arrived.

I went down to Cannes for a few days after spending some time in Paris last month. I took this photo from my hotel balcony. Parisians must think Cannes drivers are total douche nozzles, taking up all that space. In Paris there would be a scooter next to the right rear wheel of the green car, a scooter in front of it, two scooters between the silver and blue cars, and two Smart cars backed in butt to curb behind the blue one. And that's not counting the cars and scooters on the sidewalk.

Around most factory, its bumper touching bumper parking, not a big deal since they all finish at the same time. The early birds leave first.

Is it just me, or is anyone else mildly peeved that people with full size sedans and SUVs park in a slot marked "COMPACT"?

Doesn't anybody know what a compact car is anymore?

It's like looking in a full-length mirror at one's once-trim physique.

The turnbuckles on the bat roof are an interesting accoutremont, and the front wheels supported on only one side are novel.
