People who can't park annoy me....
I went to go pick up Chinese for dinner at Forrestal Village a few hours ago, and I see this person "attempting" to park in front of me.....
Think she could have done any worse?

This woman was trying....I watched her pull forward and backup 3-4 times. It's one thing if you just don't care and your parking looks like that, but if you actually tried to do it right (in a spot plenty large enough), and manage to screw it up that bad, you shouldn't be driving.

She gets a D- ...
When in the truck, I just turn in, run over the curb, come back off and im there. All in one motion ...
You should see the parking at some of the airports I have been at. People pulling pretty much 90* towards that curb. I dunno if its just ignorance or stupidity.

personally i hate people (usually contractors) that have like an F350 longbed pickup and they decide its too long to fit in just one parking space, so they pull halfway through both spots...when i have personally parked them multiple times in one spot, with a trailer hitch sticking out the back as well

If you drove a big truck you would know they back in for a reason.

you mean because a big truck can pull farther into a spot because of the overhang over the curb or because of ease of entry/exit?
