On my way home I passed through the car park, behind the shops on the High Street, and saw that about half the cards had been given a parking ticket for overstaying. Most of the ticketed cars had a single ticket, with several two...

Snapped in the Car Park

Ron Rybs @Ronrybs (21492) • London, England 5 Apr 16

Parking was never my strong suite, when I used to drive regularly, and it appears I am not alone. In the local supermarket car park, the footpaths are lined with these plastic bollards. More than few have been hit and snapped off...

Do you pass on your parking tickets?

Wizzywig @Wizzywig (7847) 22 Apr 10

I dont mean the penalty notices you get for parking in the wrong place but the tickets you get from the machine to display in your car to prove you've paid. When I went to the hospital this morning, I went to the staff car park...

Reverse parking - how many times does it take you?

silverjack @silverjack (34) • Malaysia 8 Jul 09

I don't like to reverse park. I could not make it on first try, always. I've tried many ways to find out what went wrong, but still, my best is always after 3 tries. Lately I go and get my car installed with a reverse sensor....
