For all parking disasters, not just simple bad parking (for that see yplac.co.uk).

Also includes "you can't park there, sir" for the police equivalent.

Rules:

No deaths or serious injuries because who would be around to get told they couldn't park there?
Be excellent to each other

Also from the same thread:

For people who aren't intimately knowledgeable about the Seattle rail system, the Mt Baker station is an elevated platform. Meaning she had to have driven the WRONG WAY on a railroad about 40 feet up in the air for SEVERAL MILES to end up here.

Edit: it looks like it was not "several miles" but less then one mile; a notable feat anyway:

So the cars are able to fit through the entrance?

Yes. When the light rail vehicle enters the tunnel from the street, it's at the same grade as the traffic. All a car has to do is ignore signs and bumps, etc. Pretty sure they're usually blind drunk.
