No offense but why did you park like that? Couldn't you at least have parked in between the lines and straightened your front wheels? It's a small vehicle nonetheless that's very easy to maneuver and park. I know I sound like a stickler but still.

They’re in a handicapped spot, so there’s plenty of reasons they may have needed to keep space on the right side of the car. For example, if the handicapped person is riding shotgun, they may need extra space for a ramp or other maneuvering. Since they couldn’t park in the left spot, which has that space, they shifted to the left in their spot, so if someone parks on their right they still have enough space.

Came out from breakfast and found this . Might be only the 10th maverick I've seen in the wild other than mine in 8 months. And it parked right next to mine.

Been waiting for a year to see one in the wild in Ohio where I live. Nada. Then, visiting New York City, I parked next to a Maverick on two occasions. I don't tnink they're filling our order out i the small town America, LOL

However my father is in a van with a side ramp and people have parked like that next to him and then he can't get back in his van. You still need to stay in the lines. If the passenger is the consideration, back in instead

I’ve noticed many pics where MAV drivers can’t park worth a …. And always hide plate numbers.

How do you miss the spot in such a small truck?
First, yes I know this was a joke. But recently my wife had one of those placards after knee surgery, and when she was my passenger and I couldn't get a spot with the cross hatched area on the passenger side, I would park as this person did to give her room to maneuver in case somebody crowded us. Just a foot or so....still leaving plenty of room.
And yes, well after the fact it dawned on me I could've just backed in. Like everybody else, I am perfectly capable of occasionally overlooking the painfully obvious. Hey, give us a break! 😖

Maybe it was the other party out of the lines. I probably wouldn't blur my own plates in a situation like this, but the other guy's out of consideration.

Huh???

The parking spots are for parking.

The loading zone is for loading, to be kept clear at all times except when necessary for ingress/egress of a vehicle.

I've seen a dozen or so around here in the past week. They're making them... Just not making mine.
