A few years ago when I took the train, I was also exasperated by people parking on several places in order to ‘preserve’ their own car. I always had some sheets of papers with this printing and took a lot of pleasure posing one sheet on their car. Leaving this shown up for the whole day 🙂
Nu ni voor contraire te doen, maar als alle chauffeurs hetzelfde zouden parkeren (eigenlijk de wielen aan de chauffeurszijde, dus links) op de streep !! dan zouden de auto’s beter geparkeerd zijn en zou je beter in en uit kunnen stappen! Ooit eens gezien 😁
I’ve been thinking about making some bumpers stickers of a huge veiny dick that says “I park like a huge dick” on them. Slapping one of those on will get the message across.
Condom on the window 😅
Fish behind the hubcap. At first they won’t notice, but after a while, they will start sensing the odor of rotten fish every time the come near their car, and they won’t know where it is coming from.
There used to be a site called parklikanidiot. I recreated the form in Dutch at the time.
You could highlight why they parked like an idiot.
Didn’t change anything, people still park like idiots…
Greetings from Dendermonde!
When I first started driving I did this because I was afraid of hitting other cars when parking. But now I realize SHIT LIKE THIS MAKES PARKING HARDER!
Sporthal sint gillis
Car keys.
Make that tree on the right fall on the car.
A landmine under his rear tire
Is this at the sporthal in Sint-Gillis?
Get a small car and squeeze in there 🙂
Alternatively, superglue meets keyhole?
good kick in one of the side mirrors if you’re feeling particularly angry
Post-its should communicate the message
so the car in the left is also crooked. but he could still park on the right. But I’m always careful with these things unless I see it happening. I also sometimes have to park crooked because of other people because there is no other parking space, so they drive away before me and suddenly I’m the ‘bad’ guy…
I used to close their rear-view mirrors when I was younger. Hoping it would make them thibk about why. Also, they would have to get out and circle the car when they noticed which is anoing.
Stopped doing it when I was adressed by sime “knight in shining armor” who was convinced I broke them and a big discussion happened.
Didn’t bother since then…
I’m not sure if this is a similar situation bcs I don’t know the context. But I used to park like this for 4 years.
I lived in an apartment complex that came with a parking lot. Even though I only had one car, the landlord made me buy 2 parking lots because we lived in the app. with 2 people. They were adjesent and in my name, though not labeled in any way.
I was pissed, and always parked on both.
Maybe he does this for similar reasons?
Leave a note that says:
“sorry I dented your car, I don’t have any insurance and I’m poor, so I can’t leave my contact information. Please know that if you had parked between the lines it wouldn’t have happened.”
The driver will spend a good 15 minutes looking for dents and damage to their car and they’ll think twice before parking like a pig in the future.
*Edited for spelling
I advise against the passive-agressive approach. Doesn’t work.
Here’s what I would do.
Walk up, to him/her greet them, give them a compliment, just genereally be nice and only then let them know they’re not parked perfectly and might be hindering other drivers.
If he/she still makes a stink, they’ve failed the idiocy test.
Drop it like it’s hot and walk away. You tried, but there’s no reasoning with idiots.
If you have some biker friends let them park 15 cm next to him on both sides. Lets see if he has the balls to risk moving a bike
Maybe its an elderly person who needs the extra space to be able to get out. Or an asstwat. If you havent seen the person, dont be too quick to judge.
I have bad news for you. I worked as security guard in a parking garage for a few years. These idiots came by semi-regularly. Because they literally cost us money, we put a sign on each car that was parked wrongly.
Most just threw the sign on the ground (yay, littering) and left, but quite a few came up to us and fought us over it. They’re completely oblivious idiots and nothing will change their minds.
Print out this post +comments with a multiple selectionbox where he can pick which penalty he’d like to receive in the future.
As he’s a repeat offender (from looking at the variorums replies throughout this post) and doesn’t respond to reasonable dialogue, I’d just ligt his windscreen wipers every time (both front and back) and push his side mirrors in. No harm done, no offence. He probably won’t notice the first time and will have to get out again, and after a few times, he’ll probably get the link and get tired of having to put everything right again.
Putting windscreen wipers up is a universal sign of ‘learn how to park, jackass’
This isn’t a big hassle, you don’t have to bring anything, no damage to the car, but he’ll be increasingly annoyed everytime he has to put them down again if he’s a repeat offender. Oh, and don’t forget the one in the back window, just to make sure he has to go to the front and back.
just to be the devils advocate for a minute.. Sometimes when youre looking for a parking space and one person parks likes this before you, and they leave. You are left looking like the asshole. So be carefull leaving messages because it might not be this persons fault.
I’m sure you have received a lot of interesting ideas but my advise is please make sure that the car does not belong to a handicapped person first. Some of them need more space than marking for a single car and in the absence of dedicated handicap parking spots they park taking two spots like this. This gives enough space for exiting and entering with wheelchairs if necessary.
Having said this, if you still find someone who’s parking like this without any reason, I’m compelled to think that the person is handicapped after all (mentally 🤔)
Park behind them and leave a note saying you’re only standing there because you wanted one of the spots he occupied.
Is that the sporting hall at st Gillis dendermonde?
Gather some friends and cosplay as a news crew. Wait for the driver to return and do a whole ‘in de gloria’ sketch where you give them a fake award for being the most incompetent driver when it comes to parking in Belgium.
Make the award one fo those fake but very realistic turds.
Bonus points for having a flash mob of applauding people
Obviously, the tree intimidates him so he cuts off the corner. I say cut the tree.

I’d squeeze next to it.
Windscreen yoghurt works well.
Zet er dranghekkens rond, met een bordje aan gemonteerd: idioot.
Of die persoon op aanspreken?
Little pebble in the tyre valve
Teken met krijt een speciaal vak voor hem/haar en zet het nummerplaat erbij zodat iedereen weet dat die plaats enkel voor hem is

[This guy](https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinfuriating/comments/tnx5fz/how_i_found_my_car_this_morning/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share) must have parkes in a similar way i guess
Goedemorgen meneer
Leave a note saying: “Sorry for the damage, it’s not that bad”
Put some shit underneath the windscreen whipers and than make his window dirty or piss against the door in the sun the whole car will smell for weeks

Zoiets lijkt mijn het meest humaan
