Did you know when a parking lot has an area covered in diagonal yellow lines that space is reserved for the people who are running in real quick, few minutes tops?

Bro, that’s always been the rule. Same with handicapped spots.

They saw “Details Inside” on the sign and had to run in and grab the latest issue. Apparently there’s a feature on how mid-90s Buicks are making a comeback in hipster circles.

Thankfully, there’s some space left on the diagonal yellow lines. You can park right along side, as close as possibe and just pop in.

You’ll only be a minute, I’m sure they won’t mind. They know how it works.

Pretty sure they’re actually reserved for me.

I’ve thought about this question ever since I started driving. And I have always been curious if the problem would be eliminated if spots like that were painted red instead of yellow. Maybe even the addition of FIRE LANE placed there. Yellow lines imply “meh, whatev, be cautious” red lines would imply NO.

Thoughts, anyone?

Ooh, I have one!

You’re allowed to drive the wrong way in a 1-way parking lot lane, but only if it’s because you did a pull-through into the next diagonal parking space. Normal one-way rules don’t apply for pull-throughs.

Nope.

Source: My apartment complex has solid red lines with “Fire Lane” and people park there for “a quick trip inside” or “to unload my moving truck all day.” Makes it difficult to get to/from my parking spot.

People are the worst.

Also you can use the ones where a stick figure is sitting in a chair that looks to have wheels. I think it means you are rollin’ and thus it’s ok.

I think giant spikes or tank mines would work better. Of course these would need to be able to retract when a fire truck comes.

“reserved for the people who are running in real quick, few minutes tops?”

As opposed to the people who are having a liesurely stroll doing their full shopping at the quickie mart or hanging all day out talking to the super friendly staff

I’ve always been akin to just stopping in front of a wrong wayer and just waiting for them to figure out what they did wrong.

I’d rather this than parking at the pump for a trip into the store. Especially when it’s the only diesel pump and they’ve somehow been in a gas station for 30 minutes.

That’s usually when all the spaces are taken
