      Usually the person who’s closer to the vacant lot should get it. You can’t lay claim to an entire row of parking just because you’ve been waiting longest. It’s just your luck if you were waiting at the wrong end of the row.

        MadScientist:
        Solution:


        Get an in-car camera...

        in situations like these, you can prove that he was far far away and any dispute can be resolved at the police station with the video. 😉

        New kind of insurance... for yourself.

        Cheers!
        no use one lah!

        if the driver is out to make life difficult, it doesn't matter what u have.

        bringing such dispute to police will be a waste of everyone's time.

          [quote=\"Eddow\"]...If I'm you, I would reverse BACK and let him drove out. :boogie: This also prevent the driver at the back to move in .... :stompfeet:


          what if the car behind you moved forward and prevented you from moving back far enough for the car to get out?

          I'm saying this only if the car beside me is moving out, then the most I need to move is half my car's length backward.
          But if I see a moving out car from my rear mirror, then of course I cannot move that far to it. In this case, the waiting car on my right may also may noticed it by then.

          If you are waiting on the left and infront of the car that is moving out, the driver will find it hard to turn left /out cos you're blocking it. And by moving too front(so that the car can move out), may afraid that some ppl might not see that you've been waiting there. :frustrated: Isn't the best solution is to move back, so he can move out easily. I think that's logic... Well, when it comes to driving, use our brain and be flexible at the situation.[/quote]well it happened to me.

          the car coming out was blocked by the front half of my car, but before I could reverse, the car behind move up right behind the rear of my car preventing me from reversing. I have no choice but move forward, and the car behind took the lot.

            ?! This guy waited almost one hour for a carpark lot… faint…


            i presume he also kept his engine on so he can "chiong" for a lot once it becomes available? Frankly i can’t stand such drivers… causing noise and air pollution with their car engines.

            Bishan carpark is nearly always crowded. When i go there i just go straight up to the rooftop and most of the time there would be some empty lots. Can’t understand why there are people who would rather waste their own time sitting in the car for almost an hour, and also too lazy to walk just a flight of stairs more.

                i totally agree but u will be surprised how worked up drivers here can get over a lot.

                perhaps if we adopt the Thais way of parkg, we might see more smiles instead. gee, i really miss those days where i get to test my strength to push different size of vehicles.

                        tankee,
                        it happened to my dh.
                        we were waiting for a lot for more than 30min at suntec.
                        then this fellow came and drove into the lot while the car drove out.
                        my dh blasted the horn at him until he drove out (abt 5sec only la...i think). 😓
