You can't park there, mate

For all parking disasters, not just simple bad parking (for that see yplac.co.uk).

Also includes "you can't park there, sir" for the police equivalent.

A for effort though

It's now occurring to me that this is why there are those pillars to either side of gas pumps

And that pillar laid down it's life heroically.

No, YOU can't put that in the bin, old man!

That will not buff out.

In Australia, we say "you've binned it" if you crash.

For example "He's binned it in the servo".

Ultimate Active I guess it is.

What actually happened here? It looks like it went sideways up the bollard, did something else crash into it?

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The car crashed into the back of a van and looks to have spun hard into the petrol station forecourt, bending the bollards back, wrapping itself around the metal upright and ending up on top of the bin. To bend the bollards and the pillar they must have been going at considerable speed.

Yeah that's a nasty crash for sure
