There's nothing like a case of bad parking to get drivers riled up.
Unfortunately, there always seems to be one person who thinks they're exempt from parking rules.
Recently, a homeowner was left infuriated after a stranger parked in their drive - then demanded access to her car after the owner blocked her in.
And who can forget the driver who opened their garage hoping to make their way to a doctor's appointment only to find a car parked right outside the door?
The latest instance of terrible parking comes from the other side of the world, but that doesn't make it any less infuriating for those inconvenienced.

'Why take one spot when you can take four?' fumed one local (Reddit)Tongues started wagging after an unimpressed resident spotted a truck parked across various spaces at the Hyperdome Shopping Centre in Queensland, Australia.
In a photo shared online, the vehicle appears to occupy four different parking spots, as opposed to the one you might expect the driver to use. The move has sparked a fiery debate about the vehicles allowed on roads.
Some social media users said they weren't surprised by the sight as some claimed such behaviour is "typical" of large car owners.
Responding to a Reddit post captioned "Why take one spot when you can take four?" a viewer wrote: "I don't think it's surprising that (some) people who buy giant cars that cost a fortune and wreck the environment are selfish and don't give a s**t who they inconvenience."
They added: "These massive vehicles should be heavily taxed or banned unless required for specific purposes. There's no reason for an average person to need a ute bigger than a minivan."
Someone else thought: "This is why the disincentive for these vehicles needs to be taxes and higher rego. A few thousand extra and most people are going to think twice about whether they genuinely need a vehicle this size for towing." Another replied: "This right here is what entitlement looks like."
