I agree with the small parking space thing, but I still get really piffed off when folks park in the 'Family Bays' when it's
obvious, they havn't even bothered to borrow any kids to bring! Have you ever tried to install a wriggly toddler into his bracket through an
almost closed door?? And just because you are sat in the car with the engine running, doesn't mean you can still park there. And don't get
me started on folks pulling up in the disabled bays and running off down the road......

what annoys me most in carparks is people who park forwards but dont bother to straighten the car into the spot. I always reverse in anyway, cos its
easier to get out again, but if i park forwards i always make the effort to leave it square and central.

Agree. I try and park as far away as poss where the lazy Bstds dont go. But even then you will always get some one park up against your door.

There were no such thing as family bays when my kids were small, so what's the big deal.
I thought disabled had equal rights now, so why haven't they got an equal right to fight for a parking space the same as I have to.?

As to whether or not, people should have Family bays, depends on if you want the side of your car stoved in by some ham fisted stressed out mother who
doesn't really care if your car gets a dent! There were no family bays when I was a nipper but there were no safety seats either!! As I said,
have you ever tried to lean through a tiny gap and fit a racing harness to a toddler? I'm not too bothered really as my car has a sliding door!

When I had my Evo I used to park it in 2 bays. But I always bought 2 tickets.
That was always great fun with the parking attendants

You chose to have kids, they weren't forced on you, they are not an affliction that should warrant special facilities. I chose not to have kids
and resent the pandering of the nanny state to those that mearly made a different life choice to me... And don't get me started on Family
Friendly policies and Paternity leave....
I don't park in disabled bays though
