Hahaha. Look at how this car is parked.

This photo was taken last night in the Square 2 (shopping mall) car park.
Not only is it “creatively” parked, it has very interesting ornaments. I’m talking about the ornaments on the windscreen (not inside the car).

LOL.
I thought the way the driver parked his car was funny, and my mind was going through all funny reasons he would do such a thing, but it seems I’m alone in my views.
Here’s a closer look at the emotional comments left by Singaporeans. (I’m just broadlly assuming that these were written by Singaporeans, judging by the handwriting and syntax.)

I guess I would be mad, too, if I were trying to park my car in a very full car park. But there were many empty lots at the time I was there (6:15 pm, Sunday).
So I was honestly surprised by this display of civic-mindedness. I’ve always had the impression that Singaporeans prefer to mind their own business and would rather grumble to friends than confront issues head-on.
Sure, this isn’t directly confrontational, but it’s still more vocal than I would expect of an average Singaporean.
Now, if only these people would also leave notes for tissue-chopers in food courts and hawker centres.
LOL, this would have made top news in Stomp… :P
Is this Novena Square 2? Next time, I wanna join in the fun!
P.S. Seriously, you don’t have to blank out the number plate for people like them!
Now, if only they had a clamp rather than just tissue and paper.
Prime candidates for Parking Idiots.
Hmmm… that site hasn’t been updated since late 2006!
I think the problem lies in differnt country got different culture. Singaporean are more “straight” (law abidding, by the book) where as our northern neighbour are more “flexible” (anything also can just dont get caught). Also I have driven into Malaysia before, seems like our neighbour are not as constraint by limited land, thus as long as they are able to park, who cares, how many lot were taken. Just my five cents worth.
I would have let the air out of the person’s tyres.
honestly I would do the same thing man..write a nice message for the driver to keep… ;)
interesting actions by the people.
wonder what else to do to annoy the car owner?
At least the Singaporeans didn’t leave a brick on top of the roof like what I had read in Stomp.
This sure deserve a place in parkingidiots.blogspot.com
Just wondering, why did one of the note sorta accused the car owner as a Malaysian? Do they have bad rep in Singapore? *no offfense please*
modchip : Thats a Malaysian car plate (starting with JJW). Singaporean car plates start with S** and ends with an alphabet
Well, I gotta admit we’ve got some pretty bad “parkers” here, can drive but can’t park, but I’ve never seen anything so remarkable.
This is mild compared to the BeautyWorld case where the car’s side mirror got ripped off and bonnet scribbled with a “Please Park Properly” in permanent marker ink.

modchip: The license plate on the car indicates that it is a Malaysian car.
hahah some one posted on stomp….. http://singaporeseen.stomp.com.sg/singaporeseen/viewContent.jsp?id=22894
Ahhhhhh…. thanks Rykarx and Jaywalk! Now I know. :D
I just had a thought: Anyone with THAT amount of junk hanging in the car probably didn’t notice the paper…
Park a truck in front of that car, tit for tat
krisandro: Yeah, probably. ;) But I have no reason to post in Stomp when I can post in my own blog, right? lol.
Miss Loi: I don’t know, haha. I don’t want to cause people any unnecessary trouble in case the guy really had a good reason for parking that way. :P Yeah, it was in Novena Square 2.
Jesta: I think the tissue and paper are funnier. :P
acroamatic: Haha funny site! Looks like even Singaporeans park like this JB guy. :P
juzMe: Yeah, you’re right. Malaysian laws are more lax, I guess. ;)
moby: Waaah evil O_o
Jason Ho: lol… I wish I had managed to check whether the vehicle collected more notes later. But it was gone by the time we left the building.
Ashtar83: Well, the really evil stuff would be to scratch his car or draw on it or something. But I’m glad nobody did that!
motd: Wah someone left a brick on someone’s car? Haha.
modchip: It’s kinda like juzMe explained. Malaysians have more relaxed police, so the citizens bend the rules all the time, especially motorists, who will just park anywhere and flout traffic laws. So, when Singaporeans see a car with a Malaysian license plate flouting laws, they will tend to be like, “See, those Malaysians!!”
But it’s kinda like semi-friendly neighbour bickering. Malaysians also have stuff to say about Singaporeans, I’m sure. lol.
Steffi: Yeah, sometimes I park really badly and have no time to adjust because I’m late for an appointment or something. But never as bad as this one! Haha.
JayWalk: Wah… fierce, man!
Rykarx: lol.. interesting! But I wonder why the guy never photographed the notes. Maybe he was one of them who wrote the notes!! lol.
Jesta: Hahaha… nice observation.
flyflyworm: Yeah, that’s a great idea!
There are so many people here in the USA that to this! Makes me sick.
I love that people let the driver know he was an idiot.
