Images of Canberra - And she can't park either

Best car decal I’ve seen (on a car parked outside Magnet Mart Belconnen):

“Belco Bitch 4 life”

I nailed the reverse park on my first test. Fortunately, I wasn’t asked to demonstrate it on the retest. I then avoided reverse parking for at least 5 years. Got better. The thing is, its not a skill that you need. The lack just limits where you can park. It was inconvenient for me, but no danger to anyone else.

My driving instructor (who remembers Gerard?!) taught me a nifty trick with the back quarterlight and the kerb. Trouble is, I never drove a car with a back quarterlight after my driving test. My current car has a bit of plastic which kind-of approximates a back quarterlight but it is not foolproof. That said, I do a kerb reverse park most days, and it usually works first go.

And I don’t have nasty stickers on my car! Or tailgate.

Are you saying Ant you can reverse park with skill?

I think we need a chick-parking contest.

With emphasis on the reverse park.

Much like that Brady Bunch parking episode with the egg on the cone, albeit that episode was not about reverse parking.

That’s one of those ones we were talking about in the other thread! About those delightful young ladies with frangipanis and repellant and un-witty stickers. There’s one right there!

I love watching them trying to reverse park along the kerb. Oh boy. You could sell tickets. Eventually they get very angry and roar off snarling like wet cats.

I’m sure there’s a large section of drivers who think the lines are there for decoration. It’s a bit like the drivers who think indicators are pretty lights that flash occasionally when you want to see something pretty.

That pole rules out it being because of poor parking of the car on the right.
Sometimes, you get forced into it and get left looking foolish when the culprit moves on.

“Well, it’s like, you know, on the end of the aisle, and like there was a pole sticking out of the ground there, and I didn’t want to scratch my car, sooooo…”

Needs a frangipani. Or for this classy a gal, maybe a Playboy sticker…

Looks between the lines to me. A pretty good park from the fairer sex I say, much better than they usually do.
