Ok this happened months ago but i though i would share it with u peeps. ok so i parked up outside my wifes work place to meet her for her lunch break (i work nights) we always sit on a bench and there is 1hr max parking on the same road. usually i cant park there because its usually busy but this day i got to park right opposite the bench... dont worry im getting to the point Smile

so im sat on the bench chatting to the wife when a woman in a car slowly passes my bikes parking spot and stops, and decides to park right alongside my bike!! im sat there, gobsmacked at what im seeing. once she has "parked" she then realises that she cant get out her drivers door...but she gives it a go anyway and smacks her door into the side or my bike! anyway by this point im up and shouting at her but she just ignores me, she just climbs out the passenger door and walks away with me shouting at her. but she looked at me and walked off!

heres a picture so you can see for yourself. also notice how she hit the car behind too

Almost touching the other car too.
Is it because she thinks it's *her* place near the house, so no-one else should use it?!

All four tyres and every panel.

she actually hit the car behind quite hard. i left a note on that car incase they wanted to do anything. i actually went to the cops about it and showed them all the photos. the woman lived nowhere near and she didnt park there for long as once she walked off i took some pics then ran off to find a traffic warden, after 2 mins off looking i came back to find she had moved the car, good job i took the photos when i did

Kinda related. Some inconsiderate bugger blocked a mate of mine's car in at uni.
Luckily he was car sharing with 3 other lads. After getting the car out, they proceeded to lift boulders that took all of them to lift and place them strategically around the offenders vehicle, inconveniencing the arsehole no end, without causing criminal damage.

I agree with Whos The Daddy.

Dog shit on the door handle may have been a nice touch.

Typical case of arrogance, 'bikes don't count' or 'you cant park a bike there its for cars'.

My blood would have boiled.

I may have been tempted to get the bike out and put it right in front of the car and then sat there with my video cam running Sad

She's off her rocker Shocked

Cheeky bitch!! I usualy park diagonaly to the pavement, mainly so the bike won't fall on any camber in the road but now I've found another reason. Must admit, I'd have felt compelled to do something nasty to her motor. Twisted Evil

Tbh, that's pretty idiotic bike parking, too. Most bikers park perpendicular to the kerb to take up less space. Well, apart from one idiot on Millbank who insists on parking his C1 like that in a bike bay.

I would have deflated all her tyres.. I used to do that a lot as a kid.. no damage you can get done for.. pure punishment Laughing

However you parked, she must have seen your bike so no excuse.

It is pretty unfreakin believable how disrepectful people can be.

There's not much parking on my road but I have to park my bike on the road outside my house (as I've no garage) and my neighbours are constantly bitching that they have trouble parking their cars as my bike is there. They should be bloody thanking me for not driving a car that takes up even more of their precious road space! For the sake of good relations, I try to park as considerately as possible using up minimal room but really there is just no pleasing some people. One of them was suggesting I keep it in my house just for thier convenience FFS!!

I parked in a shopping centre car park, nothing unusual.
Came back to a clio parked tight to the passenger side of the van, Needed to get the car seat in that door which clearly wasn't happening.

My OH got quite frustrated and kept slamming the door off the rear of the clio (3 door) causing quite an impressive dent/mess.

Stuck a note with an arrow pointing towards the dent saying "Remember when you were a kid and you coloured outside the lines and it ruined the picture, Well your car is the picture, and it's parked outside the lines...."
