Failing to set the parking brake is even more epic fail than bad parking. That can kill someone or at injure very badly. All because of stupidity.

It's a Quad-Cab w/ a 6' bed same as mine, making it angled to technically "fit" into a "compact" spot. That ain't lifted, actually that's stock.
Even my truck's a pain in the a$$ to park, you guys see me and what I do on Wed Nites. Either half-assed crooked or have to back it in so the bed hangs over the curb into the planter so I can "fit".
Look at the Bad parking Flickr, look at how many damned Dodge Rams are crap at parking.
Anyone still remember how I parked that S-10 longbed I had?

@everyone, my metric for "bad" parking is out of alignment with the space lines, and/or being outside said lines. See Exhibit A, especially egregious per that.
I've had to climb out the passenger side of my car more than once in the SJSU parking structures before, to contribute a more traditional example of bad parking. Sorry no pix :[

Is this bad parking or... "the inside cars are our friends and we are leaving at the same time so we'll be extremely considerate and tandem park because there's both room and it allow more people to use the available parking area."

People do this in parking garages too. I would hate to be on the inside in the event of a natural disaster where you would want to use your vehicle.

No, this was college students blocking in stagehands cars.
