I think someone should set up a web site to embarrass the offending parker. Have it set up to add quotes location and time. That way we could take pictures including their plate and show case to the world what idiots they are.
Web site could sell border advertisement to offset the cost to host. |

There are already some websites that cover this and some that also cover bad driving and one of the best was about the freeways running east of Oakland CA but I think it has gone away.
I guess there are those that can not read English very well (third language?) as I never said I did door dings and I did say I called the police on handicap parking violators! |

I'm not impressed... I could have put my Super Duty closer to your mirror than that... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Ever since buying a Crew Cab long bed, I have gotten used to parking in the boonies. Something tells me my freshly painted 914 isn't going to be any better. |

While it doesn’t really pertain to this situation, I have been viewed as the jerk in parking situations several times. I was in the ski industry for a good chunk of my life. In the early days, the guy I teched with had room to keep the van and I did not, so we would hook up at a local park and ride, usually late on a Friday night or very early on Saturday morning and then head to work. This lot was usually very empty at the times we were there. If there was snow, you obviously could not see the lines. A few hours later (or the next morning after they plowed) and the lines were exposed, my car was the one that was over two spaces – even randomly parked in the aisle on several occasions. Nothing I could do about it – but I sure got some angry notes.
We parked there as we knew there were cameras. I would have come unglued if someone had vandalized my car just because they thought I was simply parking like an ass. |

QUOTE(john rogers @ Oct 27 2010, 10:41 PM) I find that folks do that in the San Diego area all the time to the handicap parking places and I call the police and generally wait until they get there to make sure they get a ticket. I have had it happen at work before I retired and I generally will find who the offender is and then embarrass them into moving their car by talking loud enough so lots of people hear it. If it is in a parking lot then a good door ding will help them remember. John- By your statement here I believe "realred" was under the impression that you are implying you will ding their door. |

The absolute WORST car you can be door dinged by is a 914 ... our doors come equipped with a sharp, chromed metal blade on the farthest reaching part of our doors.
At any rate, most schmucks that park like that also have alarms ... grab a fender and shake the car and it'll set off the alarm. Then if he comes out to see why his alarm is going off you can ask him to move his damn car so you can get in yours. |
