Sometimes, you’re just so JAZZED writing parking tickets, that you disregard the basic understanding of your surroundings and let your car plow through a cinderblock wall. It’s bound to happen, no?

Well, it did for Santa Fe’s Parking Division employee Karmela Garcia. After stepping out of the car to write someone else a parking ticket, she turned around to find that her city-owned 2003 Chevy.. wasn’t where she left it. While some may think this would be a clever ruse to upgrade to a new taxpayer-funded company car, the general consensus is that it’s merely some highly-ironic, Grade “A” cluelessness. And to think, she even had her lucky keyring on her. Shucks!

“AHHHhhhhh shit….”

What Garcia DID say was that “she might have left the vehicle in drive and that is why the vehicle traveled down the hill“…

Take a bow, Garcia! And let the shame of a nation echo in your dreams.

The footage may be grainy, but the parking fail is crystal clear. Easy with the lead foot, pal!

There’s a saying in the racing world that goes something along the lines of “if you ain’t rubbing, you ain’t racing.” Well, that saying has no place in the parking lot, but that didn’t stop these parkers from trading a little paint.

Back it up, back it up, back it up. Perfect. When this modern day Marco Polo gets in the lot, beware, because a bumper kiss is a-comin’. You park like an idiot, good sir. Now peel your bumper off my Honda and get on with your day.

Every so often, there’s a feat a vehicular misplacement so astonishing it deserves a second – and maybe even third, fourth or fifth – look to fully drink in the terrible parking job you’re witnessing.

Buckle up your kiddos, because today we’re bringing you a lengthy breakdown of such an occurrence, one that took place in the capitol of big steaks and even bigger trucks— Dallas, Texas.

Ladies and gentlemen, we present, the Disaster in Big D.

We know, there’s a lot to take in here, even more than the 12-inches of stale bread and sweaty bologna our primary offender is shoveling down while this parking atrocity bakes under the hot Texas sun. Bad parking job? Sure, but let’s start with the most obvious offense first.

In the annals of bad parking jobs, seven monumental achievements of douchebag parking jobs stand out among the rest. Bust out your pen and paper, history buffs, and prepare to take some bad parking notes as we dive into the Seven Blunders of the Parking World:

Hanging Dump Truck of Babylon
From antiquity to the modern day, no example of awful parking was more precariously placed than the Hanging Dump Truck of Babylon. How did it get there? Did it ever come down? Can someone please get this guy a bad parking magnet? These are the questions historians will be left asking for decades.

It’s not everyday we see our bad parking cards come to life. And even though this happened way back in 2011 (prior to Do Your Park’s founding) our design still happens to be a wonderful coincidence.  Great minds shame alike?

“This is the incredible moment a frustrated mayor drove an armoured vehicle over a Mercedes-Benz S-Class parked in a cycle lane. Arturas Zuokas became infuriated with motorists parking their luxury cars illegally around the Lithuanian capital of Vilnius. So the 43-year-old politician drove over this Merc in a Russian tank to set an example. The mayor said: “I’ve had enough of these drivers parking their luxury cars on bike lanes and pedestrian crossings. This tank is a good tool to solve the problem of parking in the wrong place.” We think it was probably a set-up, but we certainly wouldn’t take a chance by parking illegally in Vilnius.”  (source)
