This isn't a person who can't park, though I suspect since they can't drive that they can't park either. If you can't tell what's going on in the picture, let me explain. First you will notice that the car is not just in the crosswalk, but half out of it and into oncoming traffic. I didn't take the picture in mid turn, the car was sitting there for a good 10 seconds. Second, the car pulled into the crosswalk from the second lane from the right, which is NOT a right turn lane. Third, this driver cut-off the car you see to the right of the picture. Clearly this Lexus owner has no clue where they're going, and feels they're entitled to make up the rules as they go. So long as they reach their destination, leaving a wake of angry drivers I'm sure, then anything they do on the road is justified.

One excuse someone might use to justify a bad parking job is that the car beside them is parked bad, and that causes one to park similarly in order to fit in the parking space. This person, however, can not use that excuse because there isn't a car within forty feet. I took another picture from farther away (not shown) that clearly shows the nearest car is at least four parking spaces to the left of this car, and six to the right.

Car companies continue to make bigger and bigger SUVs, despite the fact that they 1) suck, 2) people can't drive them, 3) people can't park them. I wonder what a person like this thinks when they see that they didn't even come close to parking their SUV right. Do they say, "oh darn, next time I'll take more time to figure my stupid large car out?" I rather think that they just don't care.

This car has been sitting on this spot for a few weeks now, and all the city did was give this guy a ticket. They didn't even tow him away. What gets me is that someone thought this was a good parking space. Even if you say that perhaps this guy's car died on the spot it now sits it still isn't a good reason for the car being parked in the middle of the crosswalk.

Because this is a Benz automatically some people are going to say "Of course." But even if you don't think that people who drive a Benz think too highly of themselves you might want change your mind with this picture. I cropped it to show the car on the right of this car so you could see just how far the nearest car was. This person can't use the excuse that there were cars near it.
