This is why I park in no mans land.. - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So I go to the University of Houston and I'm taking summer classes to get some credits out of the way. I find my usual parking spot (and no I do not take my Camaro to school, its sort of a bad area plus I don't trust anyone or want to take any risks with my car) I actually drive a 97 Explorer to school

Got out of the car and starting to walk towards class i see this!

I can't believe a person can park this horribly and be ok with it but each to his own I guess.

Then after class there is a beautiful GTO parked in no mans land just like I would have parked in the Camaro

Lets keep this thread going and post pics of idiots who don't know how to park which gives us good reason to park far as hell from anyone else.

I park my car on the 4th floor of the parking garage on campus. Everyone crams into the 1st and 2nd floors like sardines. My car's daytime parking buddies are a gt500 kr, a roushe (spellinglol?) and a challenger RT. We all park in the same spots and have plenty of room. Its another flight of stairs but who cares.

I've had my car screwed with so many times, that I've resorted to this.......

It locks in place, and it would take a COMPLETE idiot to do anything to it or else a determined vandal. In either case, it seems to deter the casual keying, vandal or sideways parking numbskull at least.

it's someone who drives an old Carolla, does it really surprise you? I see idiots all the time. Today on my drive back home i saw a lady trying to merge onto the freeway when a semi truck was right next to her, so she rode the shoulder for half a mile. WTF?!

Maybe that was actually a very good driver. If the lot is crowded, sometimes I park that way on purpose. Most people try to park straight compared to the lines, so parking at an angle like that is a good way to avoid door dings if you have to park in a tight space between two cars, since it helps keep the center of the cars (where the doors swing open) from getting too close.
