As close to the passenger side as they could possibly get, to make it worse there were lots of free spaces so they didn't have to park anywhere near me. I had to reverse out to let my passenger in.

Worse again if it has been raining so you get a wet back and ass sliding up against the car.
Similar if the carpark is full and in the only free space a driver has parked over the line on your side so you get to exit the car looking like you are as full as the boyne.
It is the carelessness and the lack of consideration that gets to me with some people's parking. Sometimes, in a shopping centre, there can be a line of cars parked across parking spaces and you have no option but to join this pattern and you don't know who started it! Occasionally, outside a small row of shops locally, I might see a car parked horizontally across parking spaces instead of parking vertically, thus using up a minimum of three spaces!
One thing that I don't get is when there are plenty of spaces available outside the local shops and someone decides instead to park on the road on double yellow lines! What is the logic there?
Another thing that gets to me is when someone parks in a disabled parking spot and they do not have a disabled parking permit.
