I had a 15 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 4: very small window in which to park my car, getting 16 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:53,200 Speaker 4: get a few things, get back before school was off 17 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 4: for lunch and to make lunch for Missy. And it 18 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 4: just holds you up like you're waiting there and inevitably 19 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 4: they can the terrible at parking. Maybe that's why they 20 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,199 Speaker 4: try to reverse. I don't know. It takes them about 21 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 4: five attempts to swing their big backside at suv or 22 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 4: double trade that's still going. Why why do they do it? 23 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 4: And I noticed on Saturday morning at swimming and Chris, 24 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 4: my husband is one of the main offenders, insists on 25 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,959 Speaker 4: backing into the park. We can be five minutes like, oh, 26 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 4: hang on, I've just got a back in. 27 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 3: It's the safest way to do it because then when 28 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 3: you're coming out, you see people, you see the cars. 29 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 2: It's the safest way to exit the car park. 30 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 4: But it takes too much. 31 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 2: Why if you're a. 32 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 5: Good parker, Patsy, eventually you're going to if you reverse 33 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 5: in or you reverse out, eventually you're going to be 34 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 5: doing the slow reverse on the way out. They'll hold 35 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 5: you up because they have to look over their shoulder 36 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 5: and slowly reverse. 37 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 4: It's quicker. What difference does it make? What difference do 38 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 4: I don't see the point anyway. It just holds me 39 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 4: up needlessly, and I do not like it. 40 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 3: This is honestly biggest rant in almost two years THESS Show. 41 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 1: It really does. It does. 42 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 2: Do you know what? 43 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 3: There are many things where you go off on one. 44 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 3: I go, yeah, I'm one hundred percent behind that. I 45 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 3: have never been irritated by someone doing that. I just think, no, 46 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 3: they're a good parker. 47 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:13,519 Speaker 1: Yeah. 48 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 5: I actually think then when when they go to leave, 49 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 5: it will be so easy for them to leave. 50 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,920 Speaker 4: Thing Christian, they're not good parkers because it takes them 51 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 4: up to five attempts to do it properly. They can't. 52 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:25,519 Speaker 4: Just like even with rear vision. 53 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 3: It shows someone who is a confident parker that actually. 54 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 4: Goes quite good. I am quite good at. 55 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 2: You know what. 56 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 3: I think we should just shake hands today.

Surely. 95 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: No. My father reversed out of a driveway and hit. 96 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 2: A car is in prison. 97 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 3: That's what I told you seven ten years that car 98 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 3: out one. 99 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 5: Day, Karen, if that is true? 100 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 3: Can verify this all right, Karen's gone, Joe. Yes, I'm good, buddy, Joe. 101 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 3: What do you reckon? They're reversing into a our parking spot. 102 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 7: I'm with past one hundred percent. It frustrates the hell 103 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,359 Speaker 7: out of me because what she said, a lot of 104 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 7: them can't even do it. So most of the time 105 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 7: I'm sitting there waiting and I just want to get 106 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 7: out of the car and tell them old thought for you, 107 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 7: because you're hopeless. So anyone out that it's twisting that 108 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 7: does it? 109 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:17,359 Speaker 2: I love it. 110 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 3: Joe, You go, Joe, Joe, thank you very much. 111 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 2: Have a nice we care mate. I'll try now. 112 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 3: Okayta, you're a drive instructor. I am a dry I 113 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 3: already want to hear your teake on this. 114 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 2: What do you think? 115 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 8: Chris is actually right? It is safer to reverse park 116 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 8: into a spot because you can eyeball it before you 117 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 8: actually get into it, and because of the way that 118 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 8: your car pivots, it's safer than to drive out, and 119 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 8: it doesn't take as many bites to drive out as 120 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 8: it does to actually get in. And I agree there 121 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 8: are some people that struggle to do it, But if 122 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 8: you watch people reversing out of spots, they take a 123 00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 8: lot more because they've got to position their car to 124 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 8: get the bond at part out without hitting the cars 125 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 8: decide them. 126 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, see, Patsy, that's the thing I reckon. You're going 127 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 5: to get the slow reverse one way or an other, 128 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 5: whether it's in or out, So why does it matter 129 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 5: if they do it? 130 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 2: And yeah, they're very cautious. That's a lot. 131 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 3: It's all about the pivot. I'm a Mechada and this 132 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 3: it all comes down to the pivot. 133 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 8: Yeah. When that other caller, Karen, I think we're saying 134 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 8: that it's illegal to reverse. She's sort of right. It's 135 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 8: not illegal to park front end, but anytime you're reversing, 136 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 8: if you hit something, then that is the part that 137 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 8: actually becomes illegal. 138 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're liabel, you're fault. 139 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 8: It's incumbent on the person who's reversing to make sure 140 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 8: that it's safe to do so. And if you have 141 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 8: to look, those car parks in shopping centers now are 142 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 8: a lot tighter than what they have been in the past, 143 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 8: and our cars are a bit bigger as well. You 144 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 8: don't have a lot of room to think, so you're 145 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 8: watching corners and all the rest of it to try 146 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 8: and make sure that you're not hitting front corners and stuff, 147 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,479 Speaker 8: and people are struck trying to get past because they're 148 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 8: too impatient to sit there while people. 149 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 2: Do you know a couple you know, just. 150 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 5: Drivers curse all right, leaning down on the horn. Yeah. 151 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 8: Well, I think if you're going, if you're driving with 152 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 8: this mindset that other people can't drive and it's frustrating you, 153 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 8: then you need to take a breath as well, because 154 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 8: you're actually putting your top under a lot of. 155 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 3: Stress that you take a breath right now. 156 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 2: Just take a breath, Patsy, take a breath. 157 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 3: Run it off, pats The Christian O'Connell Show podcast
