Retards who can't park centrally and straight between the lines, fucking up the spaces next to them. People who use 2 spaces, I really feel like scratching your car for that!

People who drive in to a space rather than reversing in, driving out is much safer and easier than reversing out.

When you get back to your car and the car next to is actually in your space.

Normally a Fiat 500 or a Micra, where they have cut in really close to as they pull in, leaving the back wheel of their car in your space...

I have a theory that the drivers of smaller cars generally lack confidence that why they drive a small car like it's a bus...

A lot of car parks were built in the days when a Ford Cortina was regarded as a large car and were marked out accordingly, fast forward to todays monster 4x4s and pick ups, the bays remain the same size - to increase the bay sizes would reduce the number of bays - yes you may get your vehicle into a bay but you try opening the doors, no chance. I quite enjoy people watching in car parks trying to clamber in or out of the rear tailgate, not an option though with pick ups and non hatchback cars.

"Drivers who park right on the edge of a space so it’s really difficult to get out of your car. "

Oh gosh this! I dropped my car off at the garage the other day and their car park is nearly always full with no spaces left so you just have to block others in. I'd parked up against the fence between the rows of bays and was walking in when a guy came out the garage and told me there was a free space round the corner. I was a bit confused how I'd managed to miss it but thanked him only to find the space was between two very badly parked cars that's back ends were over the lines. As he was still watching though I spent the next 5 minutes cramming my car into this space that also didn't have enough space in front of it to easily go straight into it. Fortunately there was more space at the back so I could easily open my door but I had to hope the mechanic who took it in the garage was pretty slim in order to get between my car and the next! I picked it up with no damage so they must have managed it!

I've got some sympathy with this, since a lot of people are very careless with how they open doors, and respect for other people's property sometimes seems to be a thing of the past. However, taking up two spaces is not on if the car park is full, and I suspect this just encourages malicious damage in retribution, which is likely to be worse than any accidental dink.

Because toddlers are a fucking nightmare to walk through a busy car park, they have no danger awareness and are prone to bolting. It's a safety thing.

In the car parks around here you get a ticket if you park outside of the markings, just as if you had parked and not bought a ticket. But as someone has already pointed out , even a modern family saloon parked in the box won’t give you enough room to open the door without touching the car parked next to it.

Could not agree with this more. Just because someone has annoyed you, doesn’t mean you should cause criminal damage and the cost of hundreds of pounds.

The person driving that car might not be able to afford to pay.

They might be in such a rush and parking straight was the last thing on their mind and you’ve just made their day worse.

Nothing, nothing annoys me more than people purposefully damaging someone’s car, for whatever reason.

The size of a parking space was set out in the 60’s as a standard.

Have you seen how small cars were then?"

This is very true - it's only recently with a comparison photo that I realised how much cars have grown in size since the 70s.

Presumably though, this was something you took into account and accepted when choosing the vehicle in the first place?

"People who park right next to me when there are LOADS of spaces.

This specifically relates to the absolute arse white van man in sainsburys car park last week, it was 0730am, pretty empty car park. I come back to find him parked that close to me I struggled to open my door. "

This is so true! I have no idea why people do it. It's a bit like people who get on an empty train and proceed to sit in the same bay of seats as you. Why?!

So many things.

1) Parking in drop off points.

2) Parking across more than one bay.

3) Parking on pavements.

4) Leaving enough space for a motorbike between your car and the kerb.

5) Parking across someone else's driveway blocking them in because you "will only be five minutes".

Basically the parking where it is convenient for you and fuck everyone else attitude.

"I have a Mercedes 4x4 about same size as a BMW X5

None of the parking spaces I find are really big enough.

You can have the same problem driving a Ford Focus, let alone a 4x4. Spaces should be far larger.

Bloody inconsiderate "

Sarcasm or just a twat?

Size comparison, the original 1970s Range Rover was only 4 inches longer than the Evoque, which is now seen as a baby 4x4.

When someone else comes along and drives straight into the space that you have waited patiently to allow the previous occupant to vacate

Parking far away to reduce the risk of some pleb parking beside you and dinging your door due to their lack of respect for another persons property.

Then you find that someone has parked right next to you.

Central

People who lack respect, when both parking and driving. Including inefficient use of the allocated or available space. Park parallel to the lines/kerb and equidistant to the lines, in general. When parking at the end of a road's available parking space, eg next to the start of double yellow lines, park from the very start/end of the unrestricted area, so that maximum parking space is made available.

Private Car Parking:

Fines levied should generally be equivalent to costs and lost revenue/business. I dislike businesses that outsource their parking, such as shops, where they run it akin to an extortion racket and the business that outsourced it doesn't give a damn.
