I’ve heard the phrase “pavement princess” used for such vehicles
I've been using "emotional support vehicle" lately.
My buddy uses "gender affirming vehicle" all the time. 😆

Hate those fucken assholes. Pavement princess driving motherfuckers.
It literally takes less than 30 seconds to bend down, pull the cotter clip, pull the pin, and toss the hitch end in the bed. Saves the shins and kneecaps of yourself and everyone else.
I had an uncle that would quite literally do that and throw the hitch(es) into the bed of the truck every single time he walked through a parking lot. If he had to do that to multiple trucks before getting to the store so be it.
Good man.
I do the same, but with bicycle lights that people have left on. I know how annoying it is to find your battery empty.

Knew someone who deliberately left it out because they thought it would help mitigate someone nudging into their backend.
To their credit, it actually worked once, someone got a hitch sized hole in their front bumper for a low speed collision.
On the other hand, this person also kept banging their own shin on their tow hitch... But they thought it was worth it anyway...
I got a hitch sized hole in my bumper because some asshole backed into my parked car and drove off.

How else will anyone know that they used their truck for something more than getting groceries? They have to let everyone know they tow a lawn mower with the ridiculously large truck.

Foot pursuit? This is clearly in America. They just gonna shoot your ass cuz the average cop wouldn't even fit in a corridor that narrow.
Woah there, let's not jump to conclusions! You can't just assume the person they're chasing is black.
Is it illegal to own a sedan there?
Basically yes. Their emissions laws are written so that bigger cars can produce more CO2 and other emissions. So small cars are not viable while large cars are barely regulated.

All of them are so proud of their back-in parking skills thinking that space is for them. Meanwhile handicapped and children have to walk in the way of them, ironically dodging the same trucks that are so tall that they can't be seen
This happens where I live and I keep wondering how crazy I would be to complain about it. The parking spots aren't long enough for trucks, so they back in and completely cover the sidewalk. I need to use mobility devices to get around and usually have to fight my way through the grass because there isn't enough room for my walker. I'm not looking forward to this fight when snow is on the ground
Make a habit of removing their tow hitches so you can get past.
As much as I love this idea, especially the suggestion to place it like a parking ticket, I have less dexterity in my hands than I do in my legs lol
Maybe I need to befriend a few neighborhood urchins xD

Yeah I think it's time for an urbanism community here on Lemmy. I've been on the fence but I'm all for spreading more awareness that things like this are not normal.

My shins are already hurting by just looking at it.
How are none of these in their spaces?
Because it’s literally impossible for these assholes to fit their unnecessary behemoths into a real parking spot. The same people who own these complain about parking spots being small, parking garage ceilings being too low, and gas being too expensive. They act like it’s society’s fault. Fucking chuds

Tie them together!
Had to take the hitch off my little convertible. That motherfucker is a TRAP! You will never see it that low, never suspect it's there, then your shin is bleeding out.
So many tiny penises.
this is such a stupidly pathetic insult that really just pisses me off to no end when people say it. hell it's not even an insult, it's just stupid and always has been.. might as well just make fun of people for skin colour and gender.
Those aren't a choice. Driving a pavement princess 100% is.
They usually try to justify it with the loose excuse of hauling or towing things, that they do maybe twice a year. It's pathetic.
The ones that actually get used regularly for their design are obvious, because they're beat up from use. And from my experience, they also tend to be the ones that don't park like this. Likely because backing in means you can't actually load anything in the bed.
What does any of that have to do with using "tiny penis" as an insult? The issue the other user has is with the insult itself.

If I've learned anything from decades of D&D, the answer is always "rooftop leaps and then drop from above". 🤌🏻
What's with the towball being top and bottom?
For when you're towing in Australia.
Different size for larger trailers over 3.5t. 50mm or 75mm typical use in Australia.
2" or 3" ball in NA to my understanding. They rotate around.
NA has 3 common ball sizes for pickup trucks: 1 7/8" for tiny trailers under 2,000 lbs; 2" for most trailers under 6,000 lbs; 2 5/16" for large/commercial trailers under 10,000 lbs

People who drive trucks who don't work in a profession that incentivizes them can all go to hell.
