I get POed about far less than those images. IMO, if you so much as touch the line between spaces, you should have points taken off the license. Make a special cop car that drives around taking pictures like yours, and if the car is not between the lines, they get a ticket.

If you have such a large vehicle you cannot reliably get it between the lines, you're not a good enough driver to deserve it.

If someone parks and touches the line so I have trouble getting in the car, I will intentionally bang them with my door.

There is someone who works at the office next door to mine who simply cannot pull his/her car into a parking space at the proper angle. This person used to own a biga$$ Caddy, now it's some kind of ginormous SUV.

The parking spaces in our shared lot are spacious enough to allow either vehicle to pull in straight and be completely within all the painted lines but this doofus just doesn't care. Every single time either the front or back end of the vehicle has one wheel/corner over the line into the next space because this person just pulls in at any old angle and then leaves it there. Sometimes a front corner is jutting into one adjoining space and a back corner is jutting into the space on the other side.

Considering that the lot is essentially empty when he/she arrives in the morning, there really is no excuse. It's not like some other vehicle is making it impossible or difficult to maneuver the thing properly into the space.

It's all I can do not to key the thing on my way past every day. What I'd really like to do is get someone else to pull straight into one of the adjoining spaces, as close to the offending portion of the vehicle as possible without hitting it. Then I'd pull into the space on the other side, doing the same to the opposite "corner" of the car. Thus making it impossible for this moron to go either forward or back without hitting one of us. So far it hasn't happened, but I can dream.
