Jerk of The Day

...because every jerk thinks they are...Special!


Sighted by: BailOut
Vehicle: Dodge Ram 1500 4x4
Place: Reno, Nevada
Date: Sept 11, 2007

Unfortunately, jerks don't celebrate April Fool's Day. :(

I encountered a Dodge Ram in a parking space marked "COMPACT". The only open space was to his right, so I took it. Thankfully, the car immediately to my right parked a touch to their right so I was able to squeeze my Yaris in there with enough room for me to get out of the car.

Before I drove off I left a note under the driver's wiper that asked, "Which part of "COMPACT" did you not understand?!".

I should have mentioned that the full-sized parking area is just 100m to the left in the photograph, and it had lots of space open. September 11 - how ironic!

You mean that RAM 4 x 4 isnt a compact? I guess you'd probably say an H2 isnt a compact either. shouldnt that be the same as a regular car parking in a handicap spot? what's the bumper sticker say?

WOW, This guy is a jerk. My only other comment is aren't you worried about door dings.

Since I'm pretty good at backing with mirrors, I occasionally
like finding one like that and the squeezing in all of a half
inch away. I suppose I did it more often with the straight
slab-sided trooper back in the day than I'd do now with the
Prius, but there's been a time or two recently as well.

Yeah, this is my favorite so far. The owner just HAS to be a completely arrogant tool. I see some of this- and I also would like to say that you aren't too worried about dings!

Hmmm, and I feel guilty parking my Grand Cherokee in a Compact spot. At least I pay attention where the lines are. THAT is one of my pet peeves.
