Comment on Bunch of other empty parking spots and this jerk chooses to park there.

I have a big motorcycle, two wheels, not three. I will try to explain.

Visibility on a motorcycle is phenomenal. Not only do you not have roof pillars in the way, you're sitting high enough that you can see over things (like you can in an SUV or truck).

There is so much room for activites ... in your traffic lane. I never have concerns about being too close to other traffic, construction barriers, curbs, etc.

Performance-wise, if you want to experience crazy acceleration without spending supercar money, get a motorcycle. And a big motorcycle will handle high speeds on the highway just as well as, if not better than, a car at the same price point. (At least mine does.)

Fuel economy. My big - nay, giant - motorcycle gets 33MPG, and that's including occasional crazy acceleration I noted earlier. And my fuel injectors are dirty, too. On the down side, mine requires premium, but there are big bikes out there that will take 87 octane.

I would never park like this, and I have had words with people who do.
