You can't park there, mate

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

Georgia is one of the most car dependent states in the country.
The main problem is, it's also likely one of the easier states to get a driver's license in (a lot of southern states are like this in my experience and I've held a driver's license in 5 states).
So I agree (to a certain point) with people who think these drivers should learn to drive. But, I also recognize that 1. we are unlikely to fix that problem in a timely manner for a state ranked 5th most car dependent in the states. A lot of people will die or be grievously injured while we get all those drivers who pose a risk to themselves and others properly trained.
To be fair my original comment was just pointing fingers and making a joke at the sad point we're at, but not really trying to think much about what's the best way to actually deal with it in the real world.
If I put some thought into it I would potentially agree with you or come up with a counter argument but we're not really disagreeing that much so I'll just save those neurons for now.
