Worst parking ever? Woman blocks drivers for TWO HOURS while she went Christmas shopping

This is the astonishingly awful bit of parking that forced drivers to wait around for TWO HOURS after they were blocked in a car park.

The white Volkswagen blocked cars from parking or pulling out of their space in Mapperley Top, Notts, after it was parked OUTSIDE of the parking bay.

Furious motorists tried to move the car – whose handbrake was OFF – in a desperate attempt to clear the congestion in the car park.

And it turned out the driver of the car had been out doing her Christmas shopping – and barely acknowledged her selfish bit of parking.

Witness Leanne Starbrook said the oblivious driver returned to the car lugging bags of Christmas shopping, but ‘didn’t even twitch’.

Leanne, who lives in Redhill, Notts, spotted the woman as she sat in Costa opposite – having previously tried to shift the car herself.

The 45-year-old said: “My mum was waiting for me in the car park as we meet every Monday for a coffee.

“She had already parked her car but when I arrived no one could get through, the car was literally in the middle of the road.

“Then all the commotion started as people tried to get past – we couldn’t understand why someone had parked like that.”

Leanne checked the parking ticket on the car and saw it had been parked since 11am – half an hour before Leanne arrived.

It was then a further 90 minutes until a woman returned to the vehicle.

Leanne added: “It must have been a good couple of hours by the time we saw her come back.

“She had loads of bags, a mixture of food and Christmas shopping, and she just put them in the boot.

“She didn’t even twitch. She just took her coat off and put it on the back seat then reversed and drove off…

“It was hilarious.”

That’s one word for it…
