If you are, you're an inconsiderate Moron with the parking skills of a Cabbage.
It's a good job I'm fit and flexible enough to still mange to get into my D4.
I'd have been totally stuffed if that had happened to me! I'm reasonably fit, relatively agile, 80 year-old guy. I'm not overweight at all, but there is no way I would've been able to get into my D4 in that situation.
Being retired, and with time to do it, I would have waited for the driver to appear, and handed out a polite, but firm .
Occasionally, I have to catch a train to a London Hospital for a 3 monthly blood test and check-up. Had it been one of those days, I would have been ed.
There are too many arrogant, selfish, bad-mannered, thoughtless people around these days.
Good manners are what makes us proper human beings, separates us from animals.I’m a Disco 4 believer. What a vehicle!
I have downloaded it & printed a couple of copies to have in the car ready for use!

Pity you’re not in an old banger !
If you were, and once you were in, you’d open the OS front then the rear doors with ‘great gusto’ and leave a few imprints on the jelly-mould’s door panels.
That in future, might make them park within the lines.
Btw, hope you’ve posted this on the D5 forum....... always on the road less travelled 🚧

My problem with the drivers attitude is their complete disregard for me getting back into my D4.
They obviously selfishly parked over to one side so they could get out but just didn't care about anyone else.
I've not posted it on the D5 site as I've not joined upHeaven doesn't want me, and hell is afraid I'll take over.

Many many years ago my brother had a similiar thing happen after waiting for 15 minutes no one came back fortunately he was parked on a slight slope so managed to roll his car backwards from the passenger seat, he then took the valve cores out of the offending vehicles wheels and left them with a note If you are stuck here there is less chance of you inconvenicing anyone else with your parking on the drivers seat of the vehicle which had not been locked and then went on his way
I did have someone once park in a way that blocked me in and then asked was her vehicle blocking me in at the time I had a 300TDi Disco with a rather heavy bullbar so I told her no and she then asked how I would get out from where I was parked my reply was with a piece of metal like I had on the front her car could easily be pushed out the way. She very quickly moved her vehicle"Never keep up with the Joneses. Drag'em down to your level. It's cheaper".
