Speaking of shopping carts... Although from the image, I'm not sure what he did. Could be just a prank.

I came across this bunch of morons yesterday. Why bother painting lines? It's not very obvious in the photo but the cars in front of the silver Nissan are all straddling the lines as well. There are no snowbanks or anything else preventing them from parking correctly. Ah Quebec.

But painted lines on the asphalt is a universal language, isn't it?

Depends on the country. When I was in the PI, the lines were no more than suggestions.

There could be a logical way to explain that. The cars would have been parked the night before and there were snowing / dark and the lines got buried down under snow (you can see water there in the morning) and drivers couldn't see clearly and just parked one next to the other with enough clearance.

These are normal cars and not really those hyper car morons.

Unless he bought 4 parking tickets, he'll get 3, if not 4
but if you have a roller, you'd not be worrying about the oinks giving you tickets

You have it wrong, in the morning when they parked, the ground was covered in snow, later on in the day you can see it melted

They get a pass

It is a perk.... believe it or not,

Why else become a copper, if not to drive fast, jump lights and park where you want.

Generally (real) cops have dangerous jobs, they can come home injured or sometimes not at all.

Regardless of what people say, very few want to go into LEO, but someone has to do it.

When I worked in a bakery, at the end of my shift, I got free bread and rolls, when I worked as a TELCO eng I used to get free international calls

If I was to be a cop, thats a perk I want to have

No pass here. There was no snow and there's no overnight parking in this lot.
