In London, England, where the roads are narrow, the parking spaces are limited and we have plenty of availability of vans that can actually fit things in, we still get these a*holes with their unnecessary large pick up trucks made for a road system completely different to ours…

These spaces are wider than usual and long enough to fit them but they still have to park like w*nkers blocking the only footpath around!

I mean, I have a 5 door hatchback and know that my car overhangs the back wheels, as does any primary school kid drawing a car…

    Both of these things can be true though.

    Also in this case that hitch isn’t effectively blocking any space the truck wasn’t already ( with the trash can there, so much if the sidewalk is impassable due to the truck the hitch is practically a non-factor).

    Generally the bigger concern about them is increased damage in a rear end collision.
