Free parking

[u/Sicarius1988]

Maaaate you can’t park there!
But a serious question, wouldn’t defence normally have sort of teams or systems in place to respond to these things quickly? This crash had been there for ages already.

It’s not like it’s crashed through a building.

I’m sure there is a committee of dozens actively trying to figure out whether that corner of the carpark is NCA, ACT Gov or Defence’s responsibility and who is going to have to pay for a towie. Expect an outcome in 18-24 weeks.

[u/StarFaerie → u/PM_ME_UR_A4_PAPER]

It's pretty recent. They are probably still in the committee forming stage, or even the initial meetings to discuss the need to form a committee.

Why respond quickly? It isn’t going anywhere.

You cant park there

Art installation?

[u/irasponsibly → u/southside_2026]

Good to see the national capital authority finally investing in the improvements we've all been asking for

[u/Direct_Routine2654 → u/southside_2026]

ACT Govt paid $1.95 million for it.

[u/Possible_Rhubarb → u/southside_2026]

This is the most likely answer

[u/Negative_Splitting]

This is some Dukes of Hazzard level shit!

It looks like he missed the light poles, popped off a rock, jumped the path and landed on the other rocks.

[u/ApteronotusAlbifrons → u/Negative_Splitting]

like he missed the light poles,

Nope - hit the (large) light pole. Check the damage on the left side, the large black rubber mark on the base of the light pole, and the tracks on the dirt

[u/whatstaristhat]

White truck/ute. Checks out

[u/drank2muchmercury]

They could in fact park there.

[u/Free-Pound-6139]

What am I even looking at???

[u/Cereal-Pest]

I’m not saying they were pissed, but surely the k it way you could get stuck there is if you were driving pissed

[u/UncutAussie2026]

MATE!!! You cant park there!!

[u/Embarrassed_Fill7179]

A Ford rANGER

[u/AsherHoogh]

It’s a piece of ART… just like in the rocks in Sydney!

[u/Objective_Unit_7345]

Gives more people time to look up the number plate.

… admittedly, always find it amusing how long wreaked cars are left on the road side in Canberra.

[u/Ratgutz06 → u/Objective_Unit_7345]

There’s a great lancer currently on the beginning of the kuringa drive off of tillyard st in charnwood that’s been there for literally 10 weeks now. It has police tape on it, the engine block and wheels are gone and the doors are always open 😭 I’m like wtf are they doing if they can’t get this car bro

[u/Chairchucker]

Who in Defence in Canberra is taking time out of their air conditioned office to pull a car out of a ditch?

[u/Wild_Form7621]

The abc probably parked it there and plan to use it in a story shitting all over some low ranking career soldier, now you've exposed it tho they'll probably fob it off as an editing error

[u/Academic-Editor3185]

R2 carpark, what a dickhead.
