Farkas Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 I came across this discussion on another board and it almost bothers me.. well actually it really pisses me off, to be honest. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3190/2805501909_52978f2bde.jpg Not only do the smug hybrid owners think they're something special because they're saving the world one day at at time, they get select parking? If I see one of these, believe I will park my VW in that spot, locked with the engine running while I shop. Small bit of irony though- look what's parked across from the spot lol.

Jeffrey Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Those batteries they run off of have to be disposed of somehow, saving the environment my ass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Jones Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Yes Sir, this is the S8 Hybrid. That V8 sound is just the batteries charging Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spankis Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 I'm one million percent sure that couldn't be enforced.....srsly. What if I was to park my dad's flex-fuel suburban there? Am I required to know better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farkas Posted August 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 I'm one million percent sure that couldn't be enforced.....srsly. What if I was to park my dad's flex-fuel suburban there? Am I required to know better? Well, aside from that, if you DID park there obviously knowing you didn't have a "hybrid" car, I'm sure they could tow you since it might be private property.. I doubt being ticketed, but maybe towed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurkvinny Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 I agree with that exactly as much as I agree with handi-capable parking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOPR Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 I agree with that exactly as much as I agree with handi-capable parking. I think it depends on the handicap. If someone is in a wheel chair and is a quadriplegic I have no problen letting them park closer. If they are just a fatass and have to use a scooter to go shopping inside meijer (which is mostly who i see parking there) then fuck them.

TTQ B4U Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 I love the irony of a big SUV in the shot I came across this discussion on another board and it almost bothers me.. well actually it really pisses me off, to be honest. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3190/2805501909_52978f2bde.jpg Not only do the smug hybrid owners think they're something special because they're saving the world one day at at time, they get select parking?

Because 37 of the people are scamming the system. My view is skewed. I had to pump "handicapped" people's gas at the Self-Serve price for 8 years. These same people that push-mow their lawns, walk around Walmart for an hour, BUT CAN'T STAND IN ONE SPOT AND HOLD A NOZZLE LEVER OPEN for 3 minutes.

Draco-REX Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 So what if you have a straight-up electric car? That's not a hybrid, but it uses less petroleum.. Would it get towed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
