Bad Parking

I was chatting with an acquaintance one afternoon in the parking lot of our office building when I spotted this scene. I didn't have a camera on me at the time, so Lee agreed to go up to his fourth-floor office and take this photo for me with his, then he lent it to me.

As you can see, the white car in the foreground is resolutely taking up not one but two parking spaces.

OK, OK, I can hear you saying, "So what?" Scroll down for here's what.

Here's the same white car from behind, at ground level.

If you look close you'll see that, despite the fact this guy had two full spaces to work with, he still managed to back smack into the signpost and dent the bumper of the car. The sign, incidentally, prohibits him from parking in either of the spaces. Furthermore, if he had managed to park properly in either of the spaces, he would have missed the sign altogether.

He is shown here wondering, still oblivious, why I'm taking his picture.

I'm taking his picture because he is a customer of the company shown on the sign on the back of his car, which says, if you look really close,

Sears Driving School.

This, along with the first one, is my idea of a classic Fun Pic.

Also, if you scroll up to the first photo you'll see that one of the two motorcycles is parked resolutely halfway into the painted pedestrian lane. It's mine.
