Danny 350Z Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 I always park in the disabled or preferably the parent and child spaces! (even tho i'm not handicapped in any way or have any children That way you get loads of room and chances are your not going to get clamped etc in the half hour or so your there! Surely not, brother.

TPO Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 I always park in the disabled or preferably the parent and child spaces! (even tho i'm not handicapped in any way or have any children That way you get loads of room and chances are your not going to get clamped etc in the half hour or so your there! Other than the fact that's pretty out of order to anyone disabled who actually needs those bays (sometimes there's too many bays given over but that's a fault of the store) but you're risking someone having a go at the car if they see you getting out ok having parked there, one of my relative's sons has a heart condition so is registered disabled, but they get grief all the time because he doesn't look disabled. Also with the parent/child spaces - trolleys being pushed by the little darlings scare me! -TPO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick43 Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 I hope that's a wind up Mitchell !! ?? very poor show if not from a Zed owner Also a No No from me to take two spaces. It doesn't take that much effort to find a decent space as advised above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchell Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Yes it was meant to be a joke, sorry if that offended anyone. I have used the parent and child on the very odd occation and only when there are plenty of other empty ones. I honestly dont think there is any way you can 100% ensure you dont get any scrapes or scratches other than not driving the zed at all. At the end of the day its going to happen and you just cant get wound up about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
get12 Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 .....taking up two spaces I do everything to mitigate damage to my car in car parks, from parking next to new cars and/or parking far side of the car park where there a more empty spaces. If I can do neither of these I wont park there - end of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerry3167 Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 *STOP PRESS* Was at Tescos Purley this weekend, and saw a 09 plate CAYMAN S take a serious dent as 2 kids lost control of a trolley and ploughed straight into the passenger door The parent was getting cash out from the wall in the hall and didnt see what the brats did I got the reg of the car she got into, and left brief details on paper for the unlucky owner of the Cayman.

CoopR Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Ouch! Nice of you to leave the note, poor Cayman drive will be smarting... I've sort of given up being too paranoid about my cars, usually try to park in lots of space or away from obvious sheds but it happens unfortunatley.
