This second entry about drivers who drive other drivers crazy is about those people who park so that they can get the best of everything; all for their own conveniences while causing inconvenience to others.
The first picture on the left shows a row of parking bays where drivers are supposed to park at a 45 degree angle as they come in. However, as one can see, some people tend to take the easy way out by parking parallel to the side walk so that they don't have to reverse their car when they want to leave the parking bay. In doing so, not only do they take at least three parking bays by parallel-parking, they also cause grievance to other drivers who want to park in the bay in front of them!
The second picture shows a two-row roofed parking bay where cars are parked front to front. The driver in the picture, who had taken two parking bays, the one in front of hers included, had purposely left her hazard light on, as if to tell other drivers that she was having some problems with her car. She had purposely taken two parking bays so that she could park her car under the shade! A few minutes later I saw this lady sauntering lackadaisically and putting her grocery into her trunk, eventually driving off without a care in the world!
Sometimes, I think it is to useful to have metered parking bays where drivers have to pay by the minute to park their cars. At least then these people who hawk parking bays will feel the pinch when they have to fork out extra cash for two or more parking bays when they only drive one car!
