If Karl allowed gifs there’d be a Captain America getting the reference one right here ^

LOL All is not as it seems here, for this driver.
The hazard he/she was not expecting, was the Clampers
The irony , they’ve disabled his/her car.

poor form – the hazards were on – thats the international sign for – “I am JUST popping in here for a second”

Alternatively, the international sign for “F*** all y’all. I’m gonna do whatever I want because I’m more important than ye little people. Just deal with it, and don’t you dare question me on it”
Ah_sure
I’d have more sympathy if he had hazards on on double yellows (we’ve all done that) but you should never be occupying a disabled space regardless – that’s just common courtesy.

We’ve all done that, have we? “Co Laois says no to Water Rates”.
Ah_sure
I’m sure Co. Laois has an abundance of available parking :P try living in an semi-urban area where you literally have nowhere to stop :'( (also I know i’m going to hell for my double-yellow debauchery)
DoM
I haven’t. I feel like I’m living a very safe and boring life now :(
Anne
Is it just me, or are the disabled spots always empty?
Always.
People getting up in arms about taking no one’s spot. So rude.
Spaghetti Hoop
So we’ve established there was no emergency? It’s a Passat by the way.
Odockatee
Its an Audi no?
Sidewinder
They’re very similar as they’re the same company but if you look at the wheeltrims it’s a VW. Or they’ve just got VW wheeltrims for some reason…
Mr. T.
Or it just looks like a Passat.
andyourpointiswhatexactly
Audis for the directors, passats for the salesmen. Pretty much the same car with different trimmings. Or so I was told in a pub once. Must be true.
Soapy
Passat. Check the wheels.
Me Myself
It’s Exchange Street not Castle Street. Just outside the Arlington Hotel/Mother
Chompsky
Thanks Me Myself. Fixed now. Sorry.

if you’re parked with hazards on long enough to get clamped you’re not using them properly.

Mr. T.
Immobilising a car doesn’t ‘Keep Dublin Moving’ and certainly doesn’t keep disabled spaces clear.
mike
Well it helps, because it makes it less likely that that driver won’t do the same thing again.
mike
But are all the disabled parking spaces required and used? Anyone know how the disabled spaces requirement is calculated, and is their usage ever reviewed.
Ya know the way able-bodied drivers sometimes have to go round and round looking for a spot, and sometimes have to park miles from where you want go.
Do disabled drivers ever have the same problems? Do we have to provide a rates of spaces per registered disabled driver so that they can *always* find a place to park near where they want to be, and *never* be without one.
I don’t think I have *ever* seen a visibly disabled driver getting out of a car in Dublin city centre – I work in the area.
Mr. T.
Yeah f*ck people with disabilities.

Maybe you’re blind? I’d get that checked.
mike
If I was blind at least I would be entitled to use the disabled parking spaces without getting clamped.
toyota avensis?
VW Passat?
Hope they’re cracking down on use of dickhead lights.
Yup VW Passat
Deirdre, I’d like to name it Deirdre…. because the driver has some neck boy!
Ha! I’ll steal that and use it!
Jim?
You guys know nothing.This is clearly the 25th anniversary GTi Golf MK2.
