Crazy school car park behaviour - AIBU

This morning as I was reversing to park, another parent came right up behind me to prevent me from moving back. I was indicating and my reverse lights were on. I sat there for a couple of minutes and waited for her to catch on to what I was trying to do. Then I stuck my head out of the window and motioned her to move back or even go past me as there was enough room to do so. Eventually I got out and asked her to move so I could finish reversing.

Her response was: "I don't know what your problem is. Just let your kid out and go". I told her that my 'kid' was only 6 and I needed to park. To which she responded, "you're an idiot" and drove off like a maniac.

I simply cannot understand why a parent, who I will no doubt come across in the car park for the rest of the school year, if not many years to come, would be so unnecessarily rude.

And if you (the obnoxious Mercedes convertible driver) are reading this, two other mothers witnessed your behaviour and the school groundsmen know exactly who you are and will be watching out for you. HTH.

I bet the school begins with G. It's the same at every school, when I can I walk because it keeps my blood pressure lower. Would be even lower if you didn't have to keep your eyes peeled for cars cutting across you to park on the pavement. These people have kids at my kids school. How can they put other kids and parents in danger? The last time I was at school waiting in my car a mother pulled in front of me, and backed up until she hit my bumper. Oh, says she, I never trust my parking device WFT

Based on the info in your second post she is clearly 100% an utter twat. Nothing can be done about the twats of life. Forget her and move on. She'll be a twat forever.
