US cars are just too tall.
Too tall, wide, and long. While parking spaces have the same 1985 car standard size.
Most drivers where I live doesn’t even bother to park between lines anymore since you cannot get in/out of your vehicle if everybody park properly.
Parking spaces are absolutely not standardized. They vary widely from place to place.
By standards I mean cars width back then.
Parking space with vary between two buildings next to each other.
They are built to accomodate 8 drunk whales lying across.
Have you seen our pot holes?
Tell me how that Small Government is working out for you.
I’m sorry you got so mad at a simple little joke.

Micropotholes somewhere in Russia:
Regular pothole:
Bigger than regular pothole:
Well-fed pothole:
I love parking as close as I can to these people. My car is already scratched and dinged up from random shit over the years.
I have an ancient and quirky 4x4, it’s painted with bedliner, and I do the same. It’s narrow enough to fit in a parking space that another vehicle is partially in.
Haha emotional support truck! Must be tough at times have a micro peen and no cunnilingus skills!
“Emotional support truck” lmaooo
Racing stripes on a truck…hmmm.

I am the guy that parks right beside him. In my designated spot. Takes a photo of his car and plate. Walks away. That drama is his drama.
What would a photo do? Prove to your insurance you put your vehicle in a situation that it could be damaged? Your insurance has clauses to prevent paying out in those situations.
You’re asking for trouble and a fight and potentially a bill that you created for yourself actually.
If I’m in my space, and that person can’t manoeuvre out of their space. That’s their fault. Not mine.
So you’re intentially putting your car in a situation where it can be damaged, and you’ll admit that to your insurance so they can not pay out to you?
They would ask why you parked there and not somewhere else. Taking the picture proofs your intent even….
Insurance isn’t stupid they know these games and people do this stuff intentionally all the time, you’re not going to have an easy slam dunk victory. There’s plenty of precedent from people thinking it’s a smart idea before. Give your insurance clauses a read, there’s clauses about you not putting your vehicle in situations, doing everting you can to avoid a collision…
Sometimes you don’t have a choice. Either park there or nowhere. Examples include, but are not limited to: designated parking spaces, or full parking lots.
Plenty of empty stalls in this picture though, and you better have images to prove that point.
Insurance isn’t gonna pay out either way. In this situation they’d say they don’t have enough information to determine who is at fault and close the claim.
insurance has clauses to prevent paying out
Oh man what a sick gotcha it’s not like that’s the entire purpose of a for profit insurance system.
Alternatively, the lovely thing about driving an old beater is that you have nothing to lose in situations like this.
Goes both ways, the clauses also prevent people from abusing the system and intentionally damaging their vehicles to get repaired.
If you have a legitimate claim, there is nothing you should worry about.
I’m glad my premiums don’t go up because someone intentionally hit a car marginally in their lane “because I had the right of way”, instead of just moving slightly over to avoid the collision.
The last vehicle to move is the one at fault, even if someone else parks right up on them.
Nope that is not even true in the slightest actually, your insurance has clauses that you have to do what you can to prevent accidents and claims.
You can be hit by a vehicle and still be found 100% at fault in plenty of situations.
Play stupid games and find out.
So will I, unless it’s a heap of crap that looks like the driver doesn’t care about their paint…
Agree. You can usually tell an insured vehicle. Not always, but usually.
You can blame the driver for parking poorly, or you can blame the manufacturer for making a massive truck that can barely fit into a standard parking space, or you can blame car-centric infrastructure for making it so that everyone has to drive, even those that are insecure about their length.
I’ll take option #3, thanks!
This just shows the laziness and incompetence of truck drivers. I could see this being an easy mistake to make since he’s pretty close on all the lines, but it really doesn’t take that long to correct it when you get out of your truck lol.
Without more context, at least he parked away from others in an empty part of the lot.
This is why bad parking is the worst. Any individual incident of shitty driving could be some momentary distraction or lapse of judgement. Things happen that people can’t take back.
But with parking, it’s always fixable. That way you KNOW they are a cunt, whether they did it on purpose, or noticed and didn’t fix it, or most likely never gave enough of a shit to even try in the first place.

That’s about as succinct as it gets when describing these types. I’ll need to remember it.
Idiot drivers*
Happens with all vehicle’s. Not everyone that owns a truck has a room temp IQ like the person depicted here.
A largely disproportionate pool of the Idiot drivers* are just truck drivers lol.
Yeah thats fair haha!
This type of shit is in purpose so no one hits the truck.
The car’s size is the same of one’s ego.
Inverse to their genital size
I’m worried now- I’m a woman with a small 3 door hatchback, not sure how I feel about this comment
Proud? Confident? :-)
Needs a 2x2 sticker added to the back to show how many parking spaces he occupies.
Tiny penis
Ah, that’s where I left it!
That parking lot looks packed, so this is worth your mental distress.
It’s mildly infuriating, not pants shittingly aggravating. If anything this fits more than the usually much more upsetting content.
Typical selfish behavior. Oh it’s empty now, don’t think about it getting busier and other people needing spots later. No no I’m the main character I deserve these spots.
This car is FAT! I mean this car is body-positive.
Hence the 4x4 sticker: 4 parking spaces for 4 wheels.
That guy is taking up like 50 bike parking spots.
Perhaps stores should set up a handful of “big car” parking spots at the very far end of the lot and let these losers walk.
