Easy there, buddy. If you’re trying to accommodate someone else behind you it may very well backfire and your car will go flying onto the guardrail. We doubt that is actually your reason, we’re just trying to give you the benefit of the doubt. You probably just don’t quite know how to park.
That could result in some serious damage. Next time, you need to park while on the highway, wait till you reach a better area, and find a space that doesn’t involve a guardrail.
This Is The Perfect Spot
This tree did not see that car coming and was totally run over and destroyed by one thoughtless driver. Honestly, how did he not notice it or the concrete blocks?
This is probably one of the worst things you can do to your car without thinking of the consequences.
I Am the Law
In South Africa, the police make their own traffic rules apparently. This cop thought it was totally ok to park right over a crosswalk. Not ideal. Does he get into trouble with that? Or do certain officials get a special exemption when it comes to certain parking spots.
We certainly don't want this cop to get away with it. Hopefully, another policeman will stop by to give him a ticket. It does however beg the question. Where will he park?
Just a Quick Run to The Convenience Store
When you just run into the 7-Eleven to pick up some milk and eggs and don't even think about exiting your car before you actually enter the store in the first place. This definitely gives a whole new meaning to convenience.
They should turn the 7-Eleven into a drive-thru to avoid this kind of destruction. Alternatively, people could just park their cars outside of the store before they actually enter it. Just a crazy idea.
Keep Going
Sometimes you need a visual aid, like a stop sign or a red traffic light to tell you when you can't go any further. Other times, you need actual objects to stop you from driving to convey the message. Smashing into a giant pole is generally a helpful enough clue for stopping.
While it worked, according to the damage, it looks like this driver may have struggled a little bit with this barrier because that shows quite a lot of impact. How fast can you really go in a parking lot?
