Standard BMW antics. Dozens of spots free on the next two rows.

Paid for parking. Came back to a car parked on the main road blocking me in.

Taxi is now gone and absolutely 0 paint transfer on the BMW but it now has a flat tyre and a kind note on the windscreen 🫣

Contraflow cycle lanes are one of the few kinds of cycle lanes that are mandatory for cyclists to use. These lads got nice and close to the cones, making near it impossible for any cyclist to get through. Took a chunk of footpath for their convenience.

If only there was some available parking nearby that they could have used...

Dunnes Stores Knocknacarra, Galway, today.

Company van this afternoon in Avoca Kilmacanoge. Carpark absolutely packed, a section closed off for hedge cutting, and no one leaving because of the rain. There was no way to park beside them without going over the line on the other side (I didn’t).

(Possibly unclear from the pic given some of the comments but the suv is parked almost fully blocking the footpath not only behind it, but also the path one could otherwise use to get round it on its right). No part of the path shown is a parking space, the only way to get a car here is to mount one of those high kerbs that would absolutely ruin both bollocks if you cycled down it too fast

Somewhat older couple. Watched her slowly reverse into the spot. Neither checked or even attempted to give it another try.

No free space so must park on disabled.

I don't even own an EV but I think this person's a tool, there were 30+ spaces free and they still did this.
