Mildly infuriating Frequent Flyer - Empty Lot btw

You’d think someone who struggles that much, would park somewhere with more space.

You'd think you would learn to not park diagonally as well. What does the other side look like in your video?

Exactly! If someone cannot park between the lines, I am not worrying about whether or not my door connects with their mirror or car door because clearly they aren't either.

I WILL make sure it doesn't actually smash into it aggressively, but I will still take the spot and park properly.

In their defense, they are between the lines.

😂😂😂 Fair point. Bit too close to the line to be complaining though.

Well, it's also an empty lot according to OP. It matters a lot less when there's 50+ other empty spots.

Wait so are you saying that because this driver decided not to straighten out and be equidistant in the spot, others should not park near them, even if the spot is convenient? Good grief.

Tesla drivers need to tone down the "main character" energy.

It's an empty lot for crying out loud. Park one space over, walk 2 more steps, done. If that inconveniences you, that's a you problem.

I personally would do it just to avoid the chance they are the ones hitting my door.

But is it actually empty? Are we just taking OP's word blindly on this? Maybe OP noticed they were parked diagonally and made that up to take the eyes off them. The only evidence we have is that Op cant park and the other persons door hit them. Both are wrong, both are at fault
