Boxed in So the gf parks on the street she always does, it's not a street with houses on it, no metered parking, just those signs that say you can park there from XXam - XXpm. So naturally workers from that area park in that spot. They don't park bumper to bumper, but there's enough space to get in and out. She comes to her car to leave for lunch break and there's a new car infront of her about a foot from her front bumper, and a car who couldn't fit behind her without being half in the alley, so he parked on a tight slant as close as he could so he was off the road as far as he could be.. What can she do when someone completely boxes her in? Tow truck the only option? Posted via RS Mobile |

Would work, but she drives a rwd car :p Posted via RS Mobile |
Call a tow truck because the car behind her technically is too close legally to park there |

I parked my little shitbox Mazda on a side street once, back end not far from the outlet of an alley... came out of the restaurant to find some douche had parked his little douchey British sports car practically against my rear bumper, and his ass end halfway around the corner into the alley. So I did what any driver of a little shitbox Mazda would do: put it in reverse, snugged up against his front bumper (to reduce impact damage - even shitbox bumpers are precious), and then punched it. Pushed the douche car right out so it was sitting in the middle of the alley... and then went on my merry way. That's how you deal with being boxed in. :fuckyea: |
I always wanted to buy an old Army 6X6 truck to deal with bad drivers. The tailgaters would find I had to suddenly do an emergency stop in front of them, the ones who stick their noses out into the flow of traffic would find my brakes would not permit me to stop in time and the close parkers would have found that my WW2 era railway track rear bumper would not have been dented but their front bumper & hood was. Sigh....meds must be wearing off again.....:) http://www.google.ca/imgres?imgurl=h...QEwAA&dur=4375 |
^You could drive that thing right THROUGH most cars and not even notice it. "What's that, officer, you say I crushed a Prius several blocks back? Funny, I didn't feel a thing..." |
Bounce the offending car away. Each person pushes down on a corner of the car and releases, repeat at the resonant frequency of the suspension increasing amplitude until the wheels start to grab air. A little lateral force at the top of the bounce and its off like a prom dress. |

i was send a snapchat from friends that were at the autox last weekend at scott road. a ford escape "or something like it" was parked in the middle of the lot that was being rented out so about 12 guys pushed it out of the way with its alarm going on and despite it being in park.. was an entertaining video! |
I was on my up to Elfin Lakes once - in the winter time. The trail up to the trailhead past a certain point has big signs saying, "Chains Mandatory Beyond This Point". There was quite a bit of snow on the road leading up there. I parked my car by the chain-up area, and was luckily able to catch a ride to the Trailhead with a nice guy with a pickup/chains. We were heading up the road, when lo and behold, there was a truck stuck in the middle of the road. This jackass in an F150 Harley Davidson Edition with all-seasons tried heading up the road, got stuck, and just left his truck in the middle of the road. There was another group that had stopped just before, and were enjoying a cup of tea. We all got out, and pushed it off the road into a ditch. Even big trucks are surprisingly easy to push on snow with just 6 of us. |

honestly I've parked into the space between a meter and the edge of an alleyway before...sometimes you just gotta pop into a place temporarily/real quick and you just cant find any parking around! :badpokerface: as long as the car in front of you has a meter of space in front then it's not that big of a deal to park a little closer to them. You're supposed to always leave a meter of space either the car in front or behind you anyways just in case this happens. But it looks like in OPs case both cars front and back weren't there when it was first parked :okay: |
