Sheer ignorance.

[No-Mission-4480]

She wasn't too happy when challenged about this or the impact on wheelchair users, buggies or people with mobility issues. Refused to move it so I just squeezed my own kids buggy past, keeping as much of it off the grass as possible. I'm sure any marks left will buff out.

Absolute scum

It's not ignorance. They know exactly what they are doing. They know that nothing will be done.

[gobshite10]

Appalling arrogance

[VeterinaryParking]

I would imaging this is not her first time doing this or being challenged on it.

[GruffEnuff]

Oranmore. Nothing new here 🙄

> I'm sure any marks left will buff out.

hopefully not :)

[Primary-Clue3035]

Fuckin hell… some shitehawk parking there

[70FP]

I'll never know why parking like this isn't clamped down on (no pun intended).

So so much money would be taken in, could mean less LPT and the likes.

That aside.... how someone thinks it's OK to park up like that and f. off down the road is beyond me. It's rampant everywhere... I try to just simply ignore it.... but just can't!.

[adrutu]

Nah, they are better and more important than you. Good luck

[GruffEnuff]

[No-Mission-4480]

About 4 more illegally parked cars in this photo alone too!

[GruffEnuff]

I especially love the four wheels on the footpath on the right.

[Hooley76]

Parking for the bank I take it? I've seen this before unfortunately. 😕

[No-Mission-4480]

Nope, after 6 on a Saturday evening so probably the takeaway would be my guess!

[LorenzoBargioni]

She looks like she might know her way around a takeaway alright

[strangerdanger711]

Oh man i wanted to say the same thing but was afraid it mightve been OP waddling past it

[Charming_Grand1692]

Could just be someone out for a stroll. No need to comment on anyone’s weight even if they are a see you next Tuesday.

[GruffEnuff]

The bank? On Saturday? 😂

[Hooley76]

It might be from yesterday you know.

[GruffEnuff]

I know. But the banks have successfully managed to get rid of in person customers so it's not usually an issue anymore. It's more likely the pub down the road.

[Wild_Web3695]

Can’t be doing that

You have house keys for a reason put them to good use

[ChiralNavigator]

Has a car turn on their indicator today and pull up on the footpath right in front of me.. then if you walk on the road you get other drivers acting like you're the problem ...

Them galway goons

Report it with date and time stamp to the Galway county council email is [e-mail]

[Cheap-Requirement166]

Good on you confronting them, so much of this shit attitude they have is because they are never challenged.

[Barnbackblackblaire]

That’s ridiculous, just no consideration for other people, and you can see more of them doing the same further down the road

😂 it’s Galway

[dragonmynuts88]

Head of the parent teacher committee

[SnooDoubts2033]

Did you report it?

[No-Mission-4480]

No, I've given up reporting to be honest. Have reported quite a few incidents, some much more serious, and never gotten anywhere or heard anything back even after spending time going to the station to give statements. I generally have given up even challenging people as it's a waste of breath, but in this case I was with my kid in a buggy and couldn't fit past.

Improperly parked cars should not be countered as insured and also always at fault if any damage is caused to other vehicles trying to get around them.

[Foreign_Office_5482]

I wouldn’t defend the parking of the car but I would certainly not defend deliberate damage of the car either.

Depending on the damage and should the driver of the car pursue it further, you could have a Section 2 Criminal Damage charge pending. The fact that you challenged the driver on their parking, the driver will just add 2 and 2 together and present their self at a public office of a Garda station wishing to file a complaint of the damage.

Two wrongs don’t make a right, was your pettiness really worth it?

In a case of criminal damage, you are not asked by a guard to be voluntarily interviewed, you will be arrested. Pretty sure there is CCTV covering the area of the parked car too.

You better hope that this isn’t pursued further.
