ASSHOLE PARKING

Missed it by THAT much.

 

I would have taken off the whole hitch assembly and tossed it in the bed with out the locking hitch pin if it didn't have a lock on it.

 

It is also supposed to be a CA State law that you can't leave trailer hitch balls in the hitch like that unless you are about to hookup a trailer. I doubt anyone ever gets cited for it, though.

 

I back in to all my parking spots up as far as my camera says it's safe to.

I also never have a receiver installed unless I'm actually in the act of towing because I'm not rude that way.

We have a guy here at work with a 3-way receiver that sticks out over 12" on an F-250...and he pulls into all his spots leaving that can-opener hanging out into the travel lane.

 

you ought to tie some fishing line on it with some cans so he tows them when he drives away.

 

If it was a Dodge I would say they were just too tired to push it any further.

 

At least the swing out is large enough to catch the eye, that draw bar is low enough to be stealthy, many people won't see it until it connects with their shin.

I'm no advocate of theft -- that said, if that came up missing I wouldn't feel sorry for the guy.

 

It’s unspoken, but if you drive a pickup in ca, you don’t get pulled over. You just get a nod. Minivans, always get pulled over, bmw and teslas too.

 

Well, maybe. In some areas...... and maybe just for trailer hitches situations.

Over the last 40 years, I have been pulled over by CHP but not cited, in my 1980 Hilux up in Chico in the late 80's; given a Nod by a CHP officer whilst going down highway 99 at a good bit over the speed limit in my 2001 Dodge Cummins; and given a speeding ticket by CHP in the early 2000's near my home in Placerville for doing well over the limit in the same Dodge Cummins, in around the mid 2000's.

I've never owned a minivan, BMW or Tesla

 

Raises hand* i will have to say that i towed a small UHaul trailer about 4 months ago, and took my hitch out of the receiver.

then i was moving some stuff in in the bed (and i put my hitch back in the receiver for bed space). then i decided to leave it in because for some weird reason, I felt like it gave me more truck cred than just being a mall crawler.

Drove with it sticking out for about a month and then I decided i should take it before i back it into someone's bumper. and before i took out my own shin.

 

This guy’s an asshole.

 

It’s Tuesday.

 

think this belongs here not in the meme thread

 

Must be snow bird season again

 

This guy was still sitting in the car.

 

Thoughts?

 

Certified asshole. The Dodge in front of the 4R is another asshole for choosing to park in that space. His tailgate has got to be blocking the lane.

 

I hate these diagonal parking spaces, can never tell where I should stop. why did they feel the need to screw with parking spaces?

 

easier to back out of in tighter lots/streets
