4Wds go any where, but do they need to park anywhere

[Roverlord off road spares]

I was astounded as to the rudeness of a couple of 4WD owners ( No not Landies)
I was at Bunnings and was turning right into the side car park, blocking the middle of the road was a woman in a 4WD parked and sitting inside straddled completely in the middle of the access road. I had no way to get past, she saw me and it wasn't until I gave a blast of the horn she moved to one side and I was able to pass. But still she stopped in the middle of the road. Behind her were dozens of empty parking spots!
I gave her a long mean stare as I walked past! I was gong to have a verbal go, but thought why bother.
On returning to my car and leaving Bunnings, WTF! another 4wd blocking the left turn exist from the carpark, so left turning traffic would have to swing widely around him into on comming traffic, and what was this Bozo doing? He was sitting inside having a quiet puff of his cigarette!
I suppose it was Sunday, so all the Bozos come out.
And you wonder why 4WDs get a bad rap.

And don't get me started on those BMW and Merc SUVs, there must be a lot of "poverty packs" being sold through the dealerships. The ones I have seen lately don't come with Indicators, if only their owners had spent the extra few dollars and upgraded to the ones with indicators. Makes it guess work when behind them knowing their next move

"Bedlam", "Arrogance", or simply bad driving or lack of respect, for other road users.?...or whatever.
I see all of this, every day, with women dropping off & picking up their children, & their "use" of one of the access roads to our local Roman Catholic Primary School, in which narrow street, cars are normally parked on both sides of the road,leaving only room for one moving vehicle virtually down the middle of the road.
Well, for these women in their SUVs, & 4WDs, it's normal practise for them to just "fly/hurtle" down the street, if you're coming the other way, look out, 'cause there's no way they're gonna stop, and if one of the parked cars opened a car door, at the speeds these lunatics travel, there'd be drama, because they would not be able to stop, or take evasive action.
I've rung the local Highway Patrol, but never seen a car there.
My wife & I avoid this street during these times.

Outside our local school there are 3 different zones. There is parking except for pickup and drop off times, no stopping, and a kiss and drop off section. It amazes me that the no stopping zone is usually full of parked cars despite the fact that often one of the vehicles is a highway patrol car. No-one gets booked. The place is chockers twice a school day and cars double park with buses trying to navigate through a jammed, narrow road.

These are probably the same ones who park across footpaths or on nature strips because they are too lazy to find a legal space. A quick walk around my spectacular suburb and it would be easy to run out of fingers and toes to count these "dumped" vehicles. Council doesnt seem to care and the local shopping centre doesnt want to chase off customers .Just a further example of the " I am above the common herd" mentality some like to display
