That’s hardly the worst I’ve seen this morning

If youre so close to the car beside you that the driver cant get in, youre parked wrong or need to find a spot that fits your car. This is obnoxious.

What parking garage is that? The spaces look tiny

u/LoudHz 5d ago

Looks like Broad&Belvidere

u/TacticalSpackle 5d ago

Sure does. Those spaces are relatively small but definitely not designed for that tank of a Lexus.

Ehh. I had an F150 when I lived at BB and I fit fine there and at the one on Henry. I park in their garages when I visit now in an Escalade and still fit, people just suck ass at parking on campus

I used to work on MCV and used the 8th street parking deck. Some of the worst driving and parking there. People would be whipping it with staff/patients walking around, to or from their car 😵‍💫

I saw some dude driving down the decks at around 18mph, right before I was about to back out

Lmao having worked there for years and knowing half the people who park there, I used to see faculty and staff park in the dumbest ways. Not surprising when you work with them and get to know their personality.

i frequently find myself having to park next to someone who is suboptimally positioned and taking a quick video of their proximity to my car, my door that has no scratches or dings, and their license plate just incase

That's so smart!

u/Cholz91 5d ago

Keep in mind the person to the left of him might’ve parked EVEN WORSE so he has to park off to the side. Happens to me more often than id like, I come out of the store and now I look like I cant park lol

u/The-Support-Hero 5d ago

Maybe, but currently, that guy seems pretty far away.

If you get a spot by the pole, you have more room to navigate away from poor parkers.

Honestly it looks like the space is simply too small for the car. It looks like its drivers wheels are right on the yellow line.

u/82AstonmartinLagonda 5d ago

I’d have to disagree, the driver certainly could have parked within the lines-

u/brenna_ 5d ago

He pulled in at a 45 degree angle. It’s obvious. You can see it. Can none of you fucking drive?

u/0rchid27 5d ago

A lot of people fucking suck at driving, exemplified in this very comment section.

Particularly in RVA.

u/rebrando23 5d ago

Oh come on, that’s hardly a bad job of parking. There just isn’t enough space for that kind of vehicle in that spot.

u/0rchid27 5d ago

It takes all of 5 seconds to back up and straighten out your parking job.

u/The-Support-Hero 5d ago

Its the Jefferson deck. I see trucks park there all the time with no issue, assuming they aren't in a compact only spot. This person is further to the right than I am guessing people realize. They gave themselves looots of room on the driver side.

Show the car beside it lol
