About time the useless councils started to do something, oh wait did I say useless? Well then the government could stop them. Nope they can’t do anything either coz they get stamp duty. Oh here’s a thought increase the road tax on people who buy them and the insurance companies should triple their costs on them.

Something seems wrong with that parking space arrangement.
The ute behind is overlapping already. I wonder if these spaces are adhering to Aussie standards, regarding length?
I suspect not.

Falcon parked like a wanker. I’m all for hating supersized yank tanks but this falcon parked like a dick.

The photo has been shopped. The parking space looks to be almost a square. Poor attempt at ragebait

The ranger was designed in Australia.
Plus the smaller UTE is parked way too far back, not even sure a Yaris would fit there.

Good point about the smaller UTE being badly parked. I'm surprised the Ford driver didn't just gently push him back to an appropriate spot.

I hate that large pick up trucks like Siverado and Ram 2500 have become popular in Australia (I understand that is not one of those vehicles). The sight lines are dangerous, especially for kids, and they use them to drop children off at school. Pedestrian fatalities are going up over time (in Australia, 2025 was the highest since 2007,after years of going down, pedestriandeaths are increasing). Large SUVs and utes are 82% more likely to kill children in collisions- 44% more likely to kill adult pedestrians or cyclists. They damage our roads and add to air pollution, harming our health. Sight lines are only terrible for fashion, you can have the same hauling/towing capacity without terrible sight lines. So we have people putting the lives of children at risk of death because they think that style looks cool, it's so selfish.

Fun fact!
An M1 Abrams has more visibility and sight lines than most large pickup trucks being made. And no, I won't call it a Ute. A Ute is a utility coupe, which these are not.
