How NOT to Park Your Camaro
Saturday afternoon at rather busy strip mall in Danvers, MA. Parking was especially tight around the Starbucks where this Chevy Camaro was parked. When he pulled into the lot he must have been over-joyed by seeing two side-by-side spots and promptly took them both. I’m sure he was thinking “no a-hole in a minivan is going to ding my car now”. Personally, I think he stood a much better chance of having his car keyed by parking like this. A-hole.
And what is it with the town and of Danvers and the way people park there? Remember the M5 parked not in the handicapped space? How about the woman suing the town over a parking ticked she got for parking in a handicapped space?

In fairness, maybe the driver thought he/she did back into one spot but the blindspots in the camaro were the problem.
You know, you’re absolutely right, I’m sure that’s what happened… I did the same thing in the very car.
Sorry, I take it all back.

I have been known to squeeze my car into the adjacent spot, even if it means parking on the curb or in the landscaping. I usually shoot for parking on the driver’s side.
Granted, I’m usually in the wife’s car.. but even still, I make sure to take a snapshot of the two cars, in case the owner comes out and decides to be a douche and key my car. Like Kamil, that’s usually my first inclination.. But I think usually the passive aggressive response is sufficient to let the guy know that he’s a total cock & the rest of the world knows it.
I’ve yet to be confronted, but I look forward to that day when someone tries to rationalize a parking job like that while giving me shit.
I must agree with rreimund… fortunately for me I drive a 17 yo F150 that the wife back down one side of that I’ve never gotten fixed and it’s lifted just bit to level out the truck ( it’s 2WD ) …it’s clean so at first look the anger would begin with the Camaro..on this one I’d back in as well…placing the beat up side of my truck towards the Camaro ( in other words keying it will have no effect ) and let him see… you have LOST… move along. And cell phones are get license plate picture takers. So are having a few friends in law enforcement.
A second choice for people like this in my state was a “child restraint” hotline/website that you could report the license plate of child endangerment persons like this. FUN.
Wow, you guys a crule… and here I felt a little bad posting this picture.
Oooh.. Scott, that’s a good one…. *takes note of local CPS’ number*
