“Special kind of person”: Driver lashes out for appalling parking job

A Sydney driver has called out a fellow driver for their terrible parking job through Reddit on Wednesday.

The user explained that they had parked their white car at Dudley Page Reserve in Dover Heights to watch the sunset.

“Me in the white car: had parked there for an hour or so to watch the sun set at Dudley's Point Reserve,” the person wrote.

“Came back for my jacket to find this nong's parking job.”

The photo the Reddit user shared showed that the red car had left no room between the two.

“It takes a special kind of person who thinks that parking like this is ok...” they added.

The driver went on to explain that the situation only got worse as his car had been boxed in by an Uber Eats driver.

“Red car should've at least taken yours out to dinner first,” someone remarked on Reddit.

“Luckily my car looks carelessly banged up enough to make someone think twice about parking anywhere near me,” another user added.

The Roads and Maritime Services advises a vehicle should leave one metre between another if parallel parking and there are no marked lines on the road.
