Thoughtless

In Madrid, Although it is actually legal to park a motorbike on the pavement (I think the only legal requirement is to leave sufficient passage, a meter or more), the council has started placing motorbike-specific parking spaces. There are very few of them and thet are usually located in places with a large affluence of bikes.

It is almost "normal" to find brutes who will park in double line without a care for the people affected. This subject you see below not only had the cheek to park as you can see, blocking not one but 3 bikes (4 if you count mine due to not being able to park it) but when he returned to his car and I told him off (though in a very polite tone) also had the gaw to beckome cocky and confrontive. Thoughtless, ill-mannered and bad driver. What more can you ask for?

Sadly, even with this picture, reporting to the police would be useless as it would lead no-where. That doesn't stop me reporting it here...



Chatting about all this with my friends, we've decided to open up a new blog where we can publicly report (within legal bounds) all those barbarians (and valkiries, as there are a lot...) drivers out there. You can find it (in spanish only, sorry) at [salvajesalvolante.blogspot.com] and, naturally, you can all report!
