Tim has sent this in for our edification:

The attached was observed early this morning in Rivett. Police have been in attendance.

Perhaps some folks were objecting to cars parked on the street.

The other thing that’s bad is cars in driveways where they intersect the footpath. Is this legal? Because it’s easy enough to walk around but stupid footpath obstructions are why I stopped skating and it would be even worse in a mobility device.

Oh come on, this debate is really starting plumb the depths now.

Hyundai drivers, huh?

Mind you, part of me wonders if this was a rollover by the driver or a prank by passing drunks/school holidaying teens/Brumbies…

That’s most insulting.

Teens are much more intelligent than that.

Would love to see NRMA’s reactions to this.

After waking up with your keys in your pocket, digging into your leg, and wondering how the hell you got home last night, just hoping to God that you didn’t drive… that would be a bitch to wake up to.

Both it, and the car behind, are ‘parked’ on the footpath, so, indeed; they are liable for a big fine.

Id love to whack a “Parked Illegally” sticker on this one.

clearly it stumbled due to the pesky tape getting stuck in its wheels..? that can happen to anyone.

Haven’t adjusted to the southern hemisphere?

Well, they’re facing in the direction of traffic flow, so I think the driver of this vehicle deserves a pat on the back for at least getting that part right. 😛

So is the car parked or not?
