Hey, Listen!
It’s dangerous to go alone, take these parking photos with you!
If you happen to find some poorly parked cars along the way, snap a photo and send it in to the RiotACT at images@the-riotact.com. Be sure to include the word “parking” in the subject, and let us know what name you would like to be credited with.
What? That last bit wasn’t a quote? Well excuuuuse me Princess!
1. Magoo kicks this off:
Hey guys, saw this outstanding effort at Deakin shops last Monday afternoon (21/10). The car park was otherwise chockers with after school pickups and tradies, but I was at least pleased the Maxima was able to get two spots for themselves!
2. Flick sticks to the facts:
Aviation House (28 Oct)
3. Genie grants us these pics:
The blue BMW is always parked facing the wrong way almost daily on Nangari st in the City. Decided to finally take some snaps.
Pic 1, BMW parked facing the wrong way.
Pic 2. It appears the MG is doing the same.
Pic 3. The very next day. It’s catching. Same 2 cars with a 3rd copy cat.
4. John knows how to fix his homesickness:
Currently holidaying overseas in Sacramento, California. How about this for some perspective on our local parking snaps!
5. Jonah presents his latest work:
I call this submission “Its a Footpath, not a Carpark”.

2: Bunda Street, Civic
3: Rudd Street, Civic
6. Malon1234 presents this baffling array:
Photo was taken at the Ern Smith Mitre 10 in Hume. It’s almost as if the world shifted and all the cars slid out of their spots. A truly confusing sight to see and figure out how you should be parking.
7. An anonymous Rioter found evidence of another Rioter spotting a protest:
I took these pictures today down behind the parking at the Hyatt and thought they might be riotact material? WA licence plate but its in ACT of course.
I drove by this parked car this morning and when I returned in the late afternoon to take a picture of it that note was in the windscreen wipers. I looked and the car was a little into the next car space in front of it. I didn’t think to take a picture of that because I didn’t think it would come out clearly on my iphone 3’s camera.
8. Sarah wins points for use of the word “bozo”:
I had to use overflow parking at the gym last night because some bozo double parked during peak time.
9. Another overseas Rioter sends us evidence that we’re not alone:
Some parking atrocities from here in the Emerald Isle!
10. This one’s from me.
I’m not sure if it counts as a bad park, but when I returned to my bike after a trip to CMAG the other day I was amused by the location I had unwittingly chosen to lock my bike up:
11. Belcoman fights bad parking crimes:
This photo is taken at Daramalan College where this idiot decided to diagonally park across 2 disabled spots and hopped out of their car with no disabled sticker!
12. Harold is helpful:
This one doesn’t fit either…
13. CF found a car keeping cool:
Spotted at St Vincent primary school aranda. Parked horizontally across three spaces to hog the only shade in the parking area.
14. Jungle Jack offers an explanation:
Perhaps they have different rules in Mittagong!!
5.00 Saturday Aldi Gungahlin.
15. Lyshious spotted something off about these cars:
Cars parked facing the wrong way at Kaleen Plaza.
16. Anon notices these things:
Must have been a busy Friday night at the Hellenic Club in Woden, a fruitful hunting ground to witness some truly terrible parking. Unfortunately these people mustn’t have realized there was ample parking spaces in the carpark across the road….
17. Prizefighter is no fool:
Spotted at the Kaleen shops – don’t be fooled by the faded old line to the left of this vehicle… the current lines are easy to identify as the correctly parked car to the left demonstrates.
18. Sheep Groper gathered up a collection for you all:
Assortment of pics including the empty parking space that wasn’t, and the Murulla Lane car
that went the wrong way down the one way lane, parked in the no standing zone in front of
the keep clear signs, and the driver leapt out to embrace his male friend who was waiting for
him, surprised by being taken from behind as he was waiting for someone entering from the
entrance.Perhaps the driver was too overtaken with the recent law changes in the ACT to be
concerned with driving legally.Also the Woden vehicle parked by the bins where the motorbike was parked in the previous
week’s snaps.
Dickson parked in the pickup zone.
Murulla exitedly wrong way driving parking greeting.
Murulla Lane parked in the no standing zone.

Woden empty space isnt empty.
Woden parking like a motorbike.
19. Aeek has to admit:
Convenient to the motel stairs.
20. Loxmyf lays these shots on us:
Jamison is the gift that keeps on giving.
Over the line is out.
And this special Volvo driver in Moore St just near Alinga St couldn’t be bothered driving an extra 50m to find a legitimate park around the corner.
21. Rachel refers to the “There can be only, and thus there must be only, one” rule:
Friday night at the helenic club woden. Always a busy night but there has to be one d!ck head!
