You Won't Believe These Photos Are Real (But They Actually Are!)

8.We Wonder if They'll Get a Parking Ticket

Parking behaviour and space use in this humorous parking scenario contrast greatly. Though unusual as a parked "vehicle," the well placed canoe shows a thoughtful attitude to shared parking areas. With great spatial awareness and respect for other parking garage users, the owner has painstakingly centred it inside one parking slot. This is somewhat different from the Mercedes in the backdrop, which uses two places for a standard-sized car, therefore reflecting a less considered approach. The circumstances begs important issues regarding the unwritten rules of parking garage behaviour and the definition of appropriate use of parking spaces. Though unusual, the canoe's location, taken with regard for others, points to a temporary fix for an immediate concern. Although the owner is bending conventional parking rules, her thoughtful placement shows an awareness of shared space duties.
