I have a strong suspicion people are driving to GO stations drunk
So we had the donkey at Maple on Friday and this superstar ↑ today at Ajax.
Then there's this driver ↓ at the Whitby station. Just because you have all that space in a disabled parking spot doesn't mean you need to be a jerk about it.

Maybe the person parked that way because they are disabled!!?
ReplyDeleteLet's not paint all disabled people with a negative brush, shall we? There are plenty of people with disabled parking permits who park perfectly fine.
ReplyDeleteThis person is just being a jerk.
But honestly, if you can't park a vehicle straight, you shouldn't be driving.
Looks like our Ajax friend has a light post in front of the car. The placement of those posts are annoying, render a spot almost unusable, but some people try (and fail) to fit in
ReplyDeleteI'll have to wait for the person who took the Ajax photo to comment. If that's the case, guess that person is NOT A DONKEY!
ReplyDeleteI'm not 100% certain, but from my look at the Ajax picture there appears to be a line going across the "parking spot" - going underneath the car. In my experience that is usually how one delinieates that this is NOT a parking spot - "do not park here, there's not enough space to make it a real spot" sort of thing. If that's the case I still think your "donkey" moniker works...
ReplyDeleteRe: Ajax:
ReplyDeleteWhen I drove, I parked on the other side of this particular pole. The reason? So I could mess with the person's mirror. It is "technically" a spot because they didn't paint a bottom line to the square. What is fun is that I did see an odd van parked in that spot.
Once the parking garage opens (ha!), the yahoo who parks there will probably do it in the garage.
Even if the light post is in the way, if you can't fit your car in there properly, find another spot. Don't leave your @$$ hanging out into the roadway. Sheesh!
ReplyDeleteCindy is right. That spot is designated as "no parking", so still a donkey...
ReplyDeleteI think it's more like OHSHITOHSHIT THE TRAIN IS LEAVING IN 1 MINUTE.
ReplyDelete*zooms into parking lot, parks anywhere, runs off to train*
Someone got their G2 yesterday
