While we can’t unasshole everyone we can start ticketing ppl who park outside the lines. In most cities there’s traffic wardens anyways, so that should be cheaper than installing bumpers on every parking spot.
I have never seen these things in my life. Apparently they are not a thing where I live. But it’s sad that we need something like that so that idiots learn to park.
I have poor spatial awareness and learning to drive later in life - plus still getting to know my car. With a long, low nose, these bumpers are so handy, particularly the lower ones and/or made of rubber, so I don’t scrape my car’s poor snout!
After a while you just get used to the fact that your license plate is going to be bent at the very bottom if it doesn’t have a plastic holder behind it.

I don’t know, man, I’m still routing for having a bulldozer drive over random walkways throughout the day.
Bad at parking or got a car that just won’t fit into parking lots? → Enjoy a newly shortened car.
Beautifully put. So often there are simple solutions to these problems.
I don’t think, in this case, it’s due to people being assholes. More like, people are dumb and completely oblivious to their surroundings.

Meh, one implies intent the other ignorance.

Agreed. And if politely pointed out, I’d safely argue that most would double-down and tell you to fuck off

We also use them to stop ppl getting run over.
Ive started to see these more and more, and imo they are a good thing! They really prevent this b/s from happening!
Though sometimes i feel they are placed a bit much too the front for my hatchback, but i understand this is so family cars dont go too far either

Not with that attitude. Just need enough superglue and some determination…
