Default How to park in a football field...

Went for dinner on Queen West last night with Amy. I get to a section of road where absolutely nobody is parked. Triple check the boards to make sure I'm in my right, park the car and walk over to the machine to pay for my ticket. As I'm paying, this lady (50s) parks her bimmer in front of me. She looks kinda of close from where I'm standing, but I figure it's probably just the angle I'm looking from. There are about 5 spots in front of me, and just as many behind. I dismiss the tought rapidly, get my ticket and walk back to the car...

"it was close she says", as she looks at the rear of her car and the front of mine. I look for myself.
"Close? Your bumper is resting on mine!!", I comment.
"I had to park behind the post, I can't park on that section of the street." That was incorrect as well.

So, the lady can't drive, can't read, and needs more room than a football field to park to ensure she doesn't hit other cars, in this case mine...

Well that ugly license plate saved the nose of the car, not a scratch. Too bad, I would've loved for her insurance to pay to repaint my front bumper...

No fault insurance - yours would have had to pay up, after deductible...
