Practical answer: because they haven’t installed concrete wheel stops on the ground in that parking lot. If that’s a used walkway, they should.
I know, people are assholes, etc. I’m just mentioning a solution that is actually available, where unassholing everyone isn’t.
I don't know, man, I'm still routing for having a bulldozer drive over random walkways throughout the day.
Bad at parking or got a car that just won't fit into parking lots? → Enjoy a newly shortened car.
Beautifully put. So often there are simple solutions to these problems.
I don't think, in this case, it's due to people being assholes. More like, people are dumb and completely oblivious to their surroundings.

Meh, one implies intent the other ignorance.
Strictly true, but most people’s oblivious stupidity is carefully cultivated and defended.
Agreed. And if politely pointed out, I'd safely argue that most would double-down and tell you to fuck off
That’s what I mean by “defended.” So there is intent, to my mind.
I have never seen these things in my life. Apparently they are not a thing where I live. But it's sad that we need something like that so that idiots learn to park.
We also use them to stop ppl getting run over.
While we can't unasshole everyone we can start ticketing ppl who park outside the lines. In most cities there's traffic wardens anyways, so that should be cheaper than installing bumpers on every parking spot.
Yes, though the other reason to have bumpers is physical safety. This is a walkway. If someone is just a little bit negligent, they could run over someone. Ticketing them doesn’t help at that point. And the cost of that life is more than a million bumpers. So again, as much as I’d like to punish bad parkers too, as emotionally satisfying as that would be for me, the practical solution that will just work is to add the bumpers.
Ive started to see these more and more, and imo they are a good thing! They really prevent this b/s from happening!
Though sometimes i feel they are placed a bit much too the front for my hatchback, but i understand this is so family cars dont go too far either
I have poor spatial awareness and learning to drive later in life - plus still getting to know my car. With a long, low nose, these bumpers are so handy, particularly the lower ones and/or made of rubber, so I don't scrape my car's poor snout!
After a while you just get used to the fact that your license plate is going to be bent at the very bottom if it doesn't have a plastic holder behind it.
Not with that attitude. Just need enough superglue and some determination...
