I absolutely can't stand when people do that, and once again, I'll try and explain. Motorcycles are a little better in that situation because you can squeeze them into small spaces and they don't have dash cameras. When a person pulls into a parking lot, then into a space, I can never position my car in a manner where I'm covering all angles with my camera and-or where I can safely place my vehicle as cover. On top of that, if I do try that I end up blocking the entire lane between the two areas of parking spaces because I have to point my car at theirs. I either end up with my whole driver side exposed to the violator where I have no cover, or the whole pbuttenger side where I lose sight of the driver and occupants.

If we want you to move somewhere else, we'll be sure and let you know. If we have to block a little traffic for a few minutes that's ok, and that's why they give us the flashing lights.
