Funny how often scooters do that. Drives me nuts in the carpark at work. bikers seem to try to take the minimum space so more bikes can fit in yet the scooters space themselves out so you could spin them around.

Nice work

I agree with the calling the cops sentiment others have expressed but really what are they going to do. "Oh yes sir I'll dispatch a car right away.. We're attending burglaries in less than a week so we've got some spare time for you today..." Not having a go at the police - they've got more important shit to deal with frankly (like writing speeding tickets

).

If it was me I'd write the dude's rego down with my cell number and stick it on the bike in case they damaged it in any way.

If i had the time and i could have stoped (driving with park) I would have sat on him and waitd untill the cop turned up. He was nicking it you see.

What an arsehole. Regardless of whether it was a bike or car, you dont move someone elses vehicle just because your a lazy arse who cant be fucked finding your own carpark.
If that had been my bike

Same attitude to mobility parking..........sorry but it is a Kiwi thing with parking in general............sorry.

They had to have some guys directing parking because it's so difficult. Whoever designed the layout is a retard. It would've been better (and more efficient use of land) to have had a multi-tiered parking building under the mall (or adjacent to it). The mall has got some flak for being too much oriented to cars rather than being pedestrian-friendly, but IMHO it's not friendly fullstop.

I know the tow company that is working around Albany (I work in the office opp. Westfield). They have a dedicated car patrolling and clamping for about 4 hours a day at the moment - not only at Westfield but also in most of the carparks around it (pack+slave, placemakers, farmers, etc etc) because the tennants are annoyed with their parks being filled with staff from Westfield (who are not allowed to park in there - grrrr).

What would have been terrible is that the bike once moved onto the pavement from being leagally parked then got towed for no fault of the owner.

Guess it shows why we should use locks huh? (says me with no lock).
