A parking one!

[Ginmakesitallok]

No diagram though.

Was popping into the supermarket on way home. Pulled into a space. As I was pulling in another car pulled into the spave opposite me- facing me. Ok - pretty normal.

As I stopped a heard a tooting. Took me a minute to realise it was the other car. So when I got out I went over to check everything was ok. Other driver said "I was going to go into that spave, but you just swung into it!". I didn't know what reaction she was expecting, but I just said "well yes, I swung in to park in it"

Her - "But I was going into it?"
Me- we'll I'm parked in it now?
Her (apparently gobsmacked) "oh, you're so nasty!"
Me - under my breath whilst walking away "oh fuck off"

So was I really nasty? We were never at risk of hitting each other?

she wanted a "drive-through" space

Perhaps she can't reverse out of spaces? Yanbu - silly woman.

You forced her into reversing practice. Well done.

Is not liking reversing a thing then???

As PP said she probably cannot reverse out confidently. I personally prefer to reverse out, rather than in. She was BU, in making out you were in the wrong, which you of course weren't.

Well it's all good practise for her

I don't think it's not liking it as much as not being very good at it. My mum is an appalling driver-her parking skills are non-existent. Some people just aren't good drivers.

It's standard to drive into supermarket spaces so you can actually get into your boot. Reversing in fucks with the system.

Did she mean you'd gone the wrong way and effectively queue-jumped?

No we were both going the right way- she'd come in from the top and parked to her right, I'd come in from bottom of lane at other side and turned right. God - do I really need a diagram?

YES ALWAYS A DIAGRAM FUCK SAKE IT'S A PARKING THREAD WHAT WERE YOU THINKING

Hmm, maybe a diagram would be helpful, if it's not too much trouble.

Someohow this reminds me of

She thought she'd blagged a "throughey" and you foiled her cunning plan! LOL! Suspect she hates reversing and decided to try and make it your problem! YWNBU... if she can't reverse out of a space she shouldn't be driving.

I've done a (shit) diagram. Is this right op? The blobs are cars.

Also yes she is an idiot

Don't touch the moustache, yes!

My diagram is so shit it doesn't even have cars...

I love your diagrams.

Yanbu. She's not the boss of the car park.

I would have asked her-why did you want this space when you are already in a space?!

It's dangerous to drive through to the opposite space for this exact reason, if she hadn't seen you she would have crashed. She is 100% bu

You should have told her that actually she took the space you wanted.

Did she think tooting would make you move 😂😂

This happened to me this morning! But it's not me from your story, I just muttered 'oh bollocks' to myself and went about my shopping.

(And then reversed out the space afterwards)

Yabvvvu op...youve not heard of drive through spaces (waves at whole family) 😜..i go for them everytime. Saying that she is being vvvvvvvvvvvvu for tooting horn. You there now so her drive through soace has gone

Just think of this as your good deed for the day. You helped someone practise their reversing

See this is why we need diagrams, I didn't understand it until the diagrams.

Everyone loves a "throughy" as previously posted but if the same happened to me I'd be like oh well, here will do !!! You don't make someone else reverse once parked for your convenience! Yanbu
