About Bad Parking

When things annoy me, I like to document them. Well first I like to complain to anyone who will listen, but then I like to document.

Bad parking annoys me. What is so hard about keeping it between the lines people? Mostly though, bad parking makes me laugh, and so one day I started taking pictures of poor parking jobs. It became a bit of a hobby, and what better to do with a hobby than blog about it?

I’ll be posting pictures of bad parking on a regular basis. As regular as I feel like at least. And soon I’ll be taking submissions as well. So go on, get your camera out and document these idiots.

    i like the concept of it ,, parking really affect daily life , one driver park the wrong way can make other 5 persons late for work or whatever they do ..

    Just discovered your site and I love it!

    We started a similar initiative at work.

    Initially we posted photos on a wall and named it the “Yellow Lined Challenge” since the lines in our parking lot are yellow (we’re very creative). This has now morphed into a Facebook site of the same name - check it out - and thanks again for the afternoon chuckle.

    This is going to sound weird but we’re looking for photos of random parking examles. If you have any interest in submitting some of yours to be posted with us as well, let us know at info@parkingspots.com or come to our site at http://www.parkingspots.com and post them. Thanks!

    haha Love the site. Will blogroll it for sure.
    If I search hard enough (or not) I reckon I could find a few Aussie shockers when it comes to parking!
    This must be cathartic!! :)

    I had issues living downtown and parking my car on dense urban streets. Bad Parking, for me, is when neighbors or strangers parallel park and bump my car bumper…result is a dent or scratch. I discovered CarBuoy (www.carbuoy.com). It provides the cushion to protect my car from negligent divers who park too close.
