Wrong.

Plug in or fk off.

I may have been known to write a note to that effect and place it on such a car.
Being inquisitive, I bothered to read up on the board next to the ticket machine, it clearly states Parking Contraventions, and a link to an Aberdeenshire countil order 2019, which no one reads, but you cant wriggle out of it if you get a ticket, it states -

An electric vehicle may only be left in a space reserved for such vlehicles during the period taken to charge the vehicles.

I dare say most council car parks say much the same, pity I have never ever seen a warden in Stonehaven in all the years I have lived near by.

Nah, better park right on the junction.
I got a telling off once for parking on someones drive we were dropping some things off to. The road was very narrow and nowhere else to park unless I wanted to cause obstruction - just ignored her, dropped the things off and left...

I wonder if similar has happened here?
I wonder if things are exactly what they seem.

The person driving the car in the picture would have been an even bigger knob, if they had also parked across the driveway, EVEN IF they had an alien call Bob from Titan, in the back seat, who just so happened to be wearing one pink and one green sock on that day.

But, we do so much enjoy how you like to invent imaginative excuses for every new scenario that occurs. beer

Said neighbour is just a selfish inconsiderate person.
Last weekend - after at least 3.5 yrs - they cut their front hedge, four feet high nettles and all.
Come bin day they dumped the lot in black bin bags by the bin. Needless to say they haven’t paid for a garden waste bin, and I think collection is bi-weekly (not that week) anyway.

I have considered (rising above it all and) offering to out their waste in my garden bin, but it’s too full to accommodate.

Maybe the guy wasn't that friendly to you, but judging from ONLY the picture you uploaded here, it seems that the guy didn't realy have much of a choice (unless this was in a service station....? where there would be parking for larger vehicles...).

What should he have done..?

I’d bet he could have parked lengthways along two spaces no?

Why is there always someone defending rubbish parking? Every photo seems to be followed by a poster defending the actions of others.

fking strange behaviour
Defending... or trying to understand others actions?
