Unbelieveable how someone can park and not think like that.

I'm not so sure. I rushed my son to the doctors on Monday evening with very sharp pains in the side of his head. He was delirious and the only thing on my mind was to get him looked at as soon as possible. Whether I'd parked perfectly between the lines in the car park didn't cross my mind.

If that makes me an inconsiderate barstewards then so be it, but I'd beg to differ.

It really doesnt take much to swing a car into a space straighter than that though does it. If you cant do that then you dont deserve that usless piece of photo ID that you carry around. (Not directed at you but in general)

Lol that its not even someone remotly in a rush just some clown.

I am also against vandalism but letting their tyres down will teachthem a lessonthatll cost them time and no money, seems like a fiar punishment to me!

I'm not saying it does - but I am saying that it is just possible that in some circumstances it may not even enter someone's mind that they've parked incorrectly, and if they're not thinking straight it might impede their ability to slot their car in a tight space.

This thread is ridiculous. So someone is sh*t at parking, happens everyday!

Bad parking for sure  - how on earth did your sister in law get the car out of the space? It looks so tight that she couldn't reverse straight back without catching the golf, and there doesn't look to be enough angle to turn the car left without clipping mirrors?!

If it is not on someones mind to park properly, even at a hospital, then they shouldn't have even driven there. Who knows what other accidents they might have caused on they way.

how hard is it to pull in to a bay forwards? i think it would require me more time to do it like that. And even if they had a passenger in need of the hospital they'll be dead before they've got out the car with that effort..... unless they're very slim....  :confused:

exactly, it takes the same time to park properly as abandoning it

A bit harsh i think

if that had been your car and someone parked like that you would have been annoyed too.

when I look at the picture of how close and the angle it is parked at it would have taken more time to park like that and it would have been very difficult to reverse the beetle out without causing damage to golf.

I like to be considerate to others when driving and parking

too bad there are plenty of morons out there that can't reciprocate that

In an emergency I think anything goes really, I know I wouldn't give 2 sh*ts how I parked, however this wasn't an emergency so it's just someone who's extremely inconsiderate and although I don't condone it, if their car was scratched when they returned it really shouldn't be surprising to them.  

None the less parking inconsiderately is not an offence, criminal damage is.

If it was that much of an emergency surely they would have abandoned the car in the ambulance bay

as I said it would have taken more effort and time to park that close to car.

I've been to our local hospital on a number of occasions and I wouldn't have a clue where the ambulance bay is, but I do know where the car park by the front doors is :wink:

And there was no effort involved in parking that close, it was just pure luck there was no contact.
