Bring your keys
They make cards you can stick on people’s windshields, I am so tempted because I am driven by spite, but I also am tempered by age… and realize there are cameras now and I would quickly get a reputation.
I really appreciate living in my neighborhood which has great access to public transportation! But you know what really grinds my gears; oh there is no bus at the moment let park here real quick. And then guess what the bus comes and now the bus riders have to bare the nuisance. Or even the morons who park over night like the one pictured above, blocking the sidewalk path.
Tell me a story about the US without telling me it’s about the US.
Carbrains are stupid everywhere.

This happens all over the UK too. In the area I live, it’s not uncommon for people to park their entire car on the footpath.
Just this afternoon I saw a guy park across a dropped kerb, jump out of his car and walk off. So my partner had to roll their chair further down the road in order to cross.
I’m also in the UK.
I have seen this shit quite a lot in cities regardless of country but yeah that’s the US lol.
Sure happens in more places but afaik there aren’t many other places where the police cares that little. Maybe in the city, but not in suburbs at least.
Honestly I would say parking on the sidewalk is actually more common in Europe than in the US. But obviously depends on the local area as much as anything.
Exactly, I‘m German and it happens here a lot. My street is particularly bad because there’s not enough street parking - which would be a good thing if they actually punished people parking on the sidewalk.
Yeah I think this is the reason. There is so much parking and road space available in the US that there’s almost never any incentive to park on the sidewalk.
I’ve probably never been there, but I bet there’s enough, or even more then enough, street parking. But it’s way too many cars.
For it to be the US, there wouldn’t be a sidewalk
yeah also because we have much more sidewalk than in the US
I think it’s also because the US is obsessed with parking and wide roads so there’s rarely an incentive to park on the sidewalk. Plenty of space elsewhere designated to that purpose.
Ontario, Canada here: A bunch of subdivisions built here since the 80’s have either no sidewalks, or sidewalks on one side only, but the roads are at least 3.5 car widths wide…fuck cars.
This should be open season for tow truck owners.
And screwdriver owners.
And key owners.
you got sidewalks? Fancy
Oh no, I tripped while taking my pet rock for a walk!!
A short story about entitlement, told in three pictures.
That awkward moment when you lock eyes and see the driver slowly back up out of the crossing.
What do y’all do when someones stopped in cross walk waiting to turn? I sometimes just want to hop on the hood; though, usually I just drag my hand across the rear window or hood.
I feel if I heel kick in front of me on what should be a public footpath then I cannot be blamed for any static vehicles that happen to be there
The Ministry of Silly Walks strikes again!
I got sudden loogie syndrome when I see this shit.
Literally happened to me this morning while I was walking and I thought about it but I was with my wife and I thought it would piss her off lol
That’s a shame lol
Douchebags.
Douchebags, everywhere!
