Parking a 9.0m rig is always a careful exercise and even more so if the towbehind is on.
Our length then is 14.0m and there are many places we would like to park but at times it is just not practical or possible without be seen at the least , as inconsiderate , or at the worst described in very colourful language.
Some might call us parking sensitive but we prefer to say we are parking aware.
In a short period of time we have collected some prime examples of Bad Parking.
Motorhomers have a mutual understanding that we park in every second space - basic rules for safety and privacy.
The rigs on the left and right of the photo had parked as per the rule.
Then along came the big black rig.
To every ones amazement he backed into the safety zone , so close, the steps and the door could not be fully opened.
He was not invited to Happy Hour.
This guy probably wondered why nobody parked beside him.
Did this guy pass the" parking with a trailer" test?
On the wrong side of the road and straddling the line , just about half the car in each carpark.
Ran out of Tarseal , or gone bush perhaps.
This style of parking provides plenty of room to open the doors .
Line up the line with the towball.
Angle parking is clearly marked , but not on this angle.
It seems it is contagious.
Plenty of space so why bother to keep between the lines.
Main Street , small town . On yellow "no parking" markings and with a "For Sale" sign on the screen. Was there all day.
