beh1972 has returned us to the horror of Gungahlin’s parking.

This one taken around 4pm under the Aldi.

You should see an Audi driver’s shopping skills…

almost got it!

Who cares how the car is parked. Its parked in the same carpark as the Audi. The carpark is a private carpark accesed by a roller door. Today i spoted three cars parked the same way and that does not include the Audi. Its a private car park and the people parking there own the spots they park in, so they can park how ever they like, im sure they dont park like that in public carparks.

At first I was keen to give him points for getting 4 spots covered (double the usual 2 taken up in these shining examples of automotive brilliance) but I reckon with a better angle he could have filled up 6, poor effort really.

That’s when you put beaten up old cars either side of the Honda.

No doubt that’s a real estate agents car. He was probably in a rush to cheat on his wife & didn’t have time to park his car properly. Hardly his fault really.

I’d have parked next to it so the driver had to make a 58 point turn to get out AND taken half a day off work if necessary to watch them do it… If the owner is a male, then they must have a very small penis indeed. I have no idea what the female equivalent is.

Given I see this flog’s car under Aldi in Gungaglin most days….would you like me to print this ‘thread’ and put it under his windscreen?

😉

Whoa… deja vu…

You can say that again…

Or does the panel-beater who lives in the boot make him park like that?

Gold X 4. I applaud you!

Get over it!! Doesn’t look like there are any other crs down there so what does it matter? If the carpark was full it would be a different matter.

Yeah, when there’s not many people there, people should be able to park wherever and however they want… never mind if it suddenly gets busy quickly!

Fk the lines.

Hahahaha. I take my hat off to you, good people
I figured it might have been that with the carpark speed limit under 80km/h, they couldn’t work out if they should be in the left or the right…. 😉

Coming from someone named ‘Holden’ we Honda drivers will take that as a compliment. Here here I raise my chardonnay to you sir!

Yeah, the nick on here doesn’t always work given the homegrown automotive context.

Set up by the photographer to see how well the thread would do here on RA perhaps?

I see what you did there.

I always knew that auto-park function on new cars wouldn’t live up to the hype.

If you lurk (or get a kid to) with a camera and record their reaction to finding it, there might be a beer in it for you (or the kid).

F*** the rules!

that’s how we roll, gunners style

Most, if not all car parks, have a ‘you must park within the marked spaces’ or some such as a condition of entry. I’m taking a stab here, but I’m guessing there is no disclaimer about how many cars are in the car park at the time.

Driving is just one of those activities that magnifies your persona. If you are a poor excuse for a driver, chances are you are a poor excuse for a person.

F*** the rules!

It must be something about the Aldi car park because I see people parked across multiple spaces all the time there. I get that it’s not usually busy but is it so hard to park in between the lines?

Common courtesy?

Good dailys these Civics nice to drive and easy to park 😉
