I think this may be a Hanlon’s razor situation: “Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.”
Absolutely! I was confused for a moment with the placement of the tree. I’d bet those lanes were painted later, and the lot wasn’t initially designed to work that way.
This is the parking lot: https://www.google.de/maps/place/TESCO+Parkoló/@47.5560255,19.0780817,17z
Looks like these “lanes” were added later, they aren’t visible on the Google Maps image.Nope they are there I just didn’t notice them, thanks @username_unavailable.
Funny thing: If you look at that spot with Google Streetview, there is someone parked on the “lane” as well. Just asshole design. In the earlier 2009 streetview pic the lanes weren’t there, so added somewhere between then. The parking lot def wasn’t originally designed like that.

That does look like a spot though. More like Asshole Design
Who designed this parking lot? I bet tons of people make this mistake as there are stalls positioned exactly the same way as the “laneway”, with bad arrows easily confused for stall lines too.
I think the driver is just sincerely mistaken, and when designing something for public use that doesn’t factor in the lowest common denominator it’s the designer’s fault when things don’t work.
“Large pickup”… I can’t believe I actually find these pretty small these days. GMC et al, fuck you.
This appears to be somewhere in Europe, and by European standards that pickup is still quite large.
Yes, but I am European as well (Swedish), and up until like three years or so, I would fully agree, but the damn american trucks have become really common here the last years.
Yeah I’ve noticed as well.
I even saw one with what sounded like a non muffled V8 engine. It blew out my ears as I was on my bike. No way that thing is legal, probably modified to comply with sound and exhaust rules to import it and then re-modified. That dude probably thought he is so cool with his truck, whilst what everyone else was thinking was fuck you asshole, he must have the smallest dick in the world.

These oversized monstrosities should be banned. There’s no use case for them. On the odd time you need to move some long pieces of wood hire a transit. If you need to do that very often buy a transit.
But theres a line beside it, that means it’s a parking space!
/S
That is actually considered a smaller truck over here in the states. Same size as a Ford Ranger.
Fuck cars, but if you don’t use a car why do you need a car sized lane? My bike would slip right through that gap. This is a carhead issue.
Fuxk cars is about car dependence and culture, not about never personally using a car.
Fair. Not my monkeys not my circus.
So go use one of those spots.
Seriously. With North American absurd parking minimums, you will be hard pressed to ever find a full lot. People love to complain about how someone is taking multiple spots but the reality is that even if everyone parked like that, the lots would almost never be full.
USA! USA! USA!
Except this is in Hungary?
USA! USA! USA!
