Wildwood shopping center. Bethesda. If I ever go to jail this will be why

So I know I need to get a grip/and or choose another Starbucks/ but the rage I feel each morning as I see huge ass black SUVs in the narrow fire lane blocking other cars is going to land me in jail.

Huge black SUV owners with private school teens in stupid plaid skirts- the rules apply to you as well. Park your damn car and let your kid walk the 10 steps to pick up their drink and Bethesda Bagel. This is not a school drop off lane. You don't have the right to block traffic while you idle your car under a no stopping/standing/fire lane sign.

And no I'm not jealous, my kid attended a 80k per year undergrad. You just suck.

I had to look this up. It's the one with Balduccis. The one with Whole Foods and the other bagel shop- that was my rage place. I completely boycotted after the first time.

Agree OP. I’m a rule follower can’t stand the “rules don’t apply” to me types. They usually couch it with some condescending “you need to calm down” remark trying to justify their selfish behavior.

ITA. Due to a kid extracurricular in the area, I find myself running errands at Wildwood at least once a week. I truly don't understand why the mall management doesn't crack down on the double parking esp at the bagel shop. Especially after the car that went through a shop window a few months back. The volume of foot traffic and car traffic makes it really hazardous.

Then again there's so much double parking everywhere you go, much worse since the pandemic with so many delivery services. I have stopped shopping at a nearby Amazon Fresh because it's impossible to get around all the double parked delivery drivers.

Agree OP. I also think it is obnoxious and entitled to take your teen kids to Starbucks every morning before school. Terrible precedence to set for their adult life. Can you not toast a bagel at home? Brew a pot of coffee?

Just stop. If your kid can't safely cross the street then YOU park and get out. It's obnoxious

Bagel shop and Starbucks should put big signs on the door.
DO NOT BLOCK FIRE LANE TO USE THIS BUSINESS

This is a fake story, everyone knows all the huge private school moms drive WHITE SUVs (seriously, once I parked there and the entire row was white luxury SUVs!)

Start calling the cops every morning. Easy ticket revenue for them.

Ah if I could only manifest police to come to Bethesda but alas they have to be in Wheaton ticketing the illegals

Maybe we can get an underground network going and work in teams of two to block them in.

They should build a stand alone drive through Starbucks in the parking lot there.
