Why would you park your car in an area that would be condusive to bad parking jobs .. By the way YOU were parked, it seems you were just ITCHING for an issue..I would park away from everybody then take that prospective picture..Showing where you parked AWAY from everybody and then how this guy parked next to you.. THEN you would have a case.. But for now It's your own fault..

Are you also one of those people that stand by the window looking at everybody too?

I'm still trying to figure out how you parked horizontal like that...seems like you need a ladder to get into the car...and how did you get it to stay like that? And who in the world designs parking lots where you have to park cars on their side.

or he parked like that on purpose cause he saw you parked on the line, just to make it more difficult for you to get in your car...

I've done that before...not in my camaro of course

The key is to look out your window while getting into the space while maneuvering your drivers side tires as close to, but not directly on top of, the intended lines. I still do this even though I park out alone...then walk the ten minutes it takes to get to class. It's good practice for parking stalls where you have no choice but to get surgical with this vehicle.

My college is exactly the same but I know where people don't park as well as the parking spaces where I would have more then enough room to open my doors. (Gravel inserts FTW!!!) Beneficial because when I am about 1 inch away from the insert I am 4 feet from other cars (WOOT!)

To the OP I have gotten out of tighter and with my size that was a blessing.

I got nothing better to do, waiting for traffic to die down at school. And you still should work on your parking before bitching about other people. It's not that difficult to get in there straight.

As stated in a previous thread. I will drive for blocks to find a parallel spot. Or just take the beater to avoid this kind of encounters.

... The spots here are tight enough.. But people usually park closer tothe left side of the line to give the person enough room to get out of the driver side
Lol I think they are just giving you a hard time. I hope.

Actually that 4th Gen is pretty beat up, kinda wished it was to the other side. That poor car hasn't started in over half a year, I fear for the worst. Its actually a pretty rare 96 RS Convertible, the owner has totally neglected it. :(
