I give no one a break. There is a reason there's a fire lane. It's not to cut down on walking time for those that dare to be rule breakers. It's so a fire truck can pull near the entrance &/or hydrant. Imagine your family was inside a burning building with 3 cars parked in the lane preventing firefighters from a quick & easy access. Would you really care about the UberEats's tip then? SMH |
Wow, suddenly I regret all those doors of BMW's I kicked dents in or knocked the sideview mirrors off of while they were parked in fire lanes in front of the grocery store. eh.... nah, I'm not sorry. Just kidding. |
It's both hilarious and kind of adorable that there are still people out there who think this is an appropriate use of hazards |
Like a four alarm fire is going to break out in the 4 minutes they are delivering your food/amazon/groceries....uhmmm ok. How many of you are willing to come down out of your overpriced condo developments and pick your deliveries up outside? Crickets. Yep. |

Back in the day when car theft was high I would not park fire or handicap as car would be ticketed it towed. I usually park on sidewalk.
Why because I have to put my top up, put on club on steering wheel etc. no one ever complained. I was a true humanitarian also I had a 450sl convertible and back in 1991 that car would be stolen in five seconds on street or in parking lot. Most restaurant, bars actually encouraged some had cones to block a place for car and doorman would watch it. I left it once in a very dangerous neighborhood and I recall folks thought I was a drug dealer or hit man as what type door leaves a top down Mercedes in street at two am in a crime zone If they are nice cars I am ok. German or Italian only convertible classics. I also leave keys in ignition in case it needs to be moved. And as someone who got 100 on NYC fire exam convertibles in fire zones as you can run host through car. Hardwood I got to break windows slows me down |
OP here. Nope. These are definitely not the types of cars driven by someone just trying to eek out a living wage. |
