You wouldn't believe how often it happens, and if people are in the car, how reluctant they are to drive forward for you to fit in the park. Do what I used to do when I was a courier. Double park over their driver's door so that your passenger door wing mirror is nearly touching their driver's door. They can't go anywhere until you move your vehicle. Just don't react at all to the inevitable temper tantrums - just calmly tell them that they are not legally parked and they are welcome to call the Police. That'll learn them!! Worked a treat for me!! :D EDIT: Not like you to make spelling mistakes!!! |

| 1156273 | 2010-11-25 12:19:00 | Yeah the ones I'm referring to say Goods Service Vehicles Only. Most of the ones in central Aucks say that. | roddy_boy (4115) | ||
| 1156274 | 2010-11-25 12:36:00 | So what is it that you are really trying to say? :(:(:( A fitting description for these morons, really. Saw one ******* in a blue Honda Civic hatchback on Princess St in central Auckland today, liberally taking up two spaces. There was a parking warden nearby and if I weren't in a rush I would have gotten the warden to slap the homo with a fine. In the past I've left a nasty note on another moron's windshield. Idiot thinks he/she can reverse park, only to take up two spaces. Hate these idiots, hopefully they have a crash that doesn't kill them, but remove their ability to reproduce. |

Coming out of Bulls became aware of an invisible Mazda, not so invsible that I was able to spot him the one time he was not so close he was hiding from mirror view. Gets to some roadworks and he passed me as I was slowing a 4 other cars. Figured wouldnt se him again! Further up at Hunterville a nice big piece roadworks and guess whats coming up behind me...yup the Mazda anyways wiser to him this time and we had to stop for Traffic Lights. Watching my mirrors saw this twit sticking his nose out of the line clearly impatiant. Next thing you hear is a car horn hooting! Well duh the lights are not changing that way.:rolleyes: Whats ****wit try to do yup go around just as the stream of traffic is coming thru. When the lights changed I ended up being the widest vehicle I could be and most unpredictable dodging the potholes :devil Not that it slowed him down :( like a bullet he was off again only a few ks to be held up by a house bus pulling a camper at around 80kph. The ulimate frustration so off mr impatiant went on the double yellows passing this Bus combo and a car behind the Bus. Funny thing I got it on my Dashcam :clap just short Waiouru I saw the same car talking to a guy with red and blue lights on his roof :punk When they finished I showed mr plod the dash cam footage........oh dear. Just rember folks Comercial vehicles are more and more being fitted with cameras as the technology lowers in price. |

Unless on the loading zone sign where it says Goods Vehicles Only . Unless things have changed since I was couriering (it's a while ago now, so it might have happened), that is incorrect . Unfortunately, I haven't got time this morning to trawl through the badly indexed NZTA site, but I think you'll find that most, if not all, Loading Zone signs have "Goods Vehicles Only" clearly stated . If you're not driving a commercial vehicle, you shouldn't be there . |

That depends :p Family had a stationwagon because they had a shop etc .. :D The vehicle was linked to the businessn's taxation etc .. but it didn't have slogans on it. |
