Wtf people… Finally a post that is actually mildly infuriating and OP is getting shit on for not being infuriating enough!
This post is doubly mildly infuriating, so I’m going to log in with my alt and upvoted twice.

I fail to see the problem. There’s clearly enough sidewalk to get by, even on a wheelchair.
I think the emphasis here is on “mildly.”
So as long as a wheelchair can squeak by a car can park on the sidewalk? Is this true or parking spaces so I can park 6" from your driver side door? What about in front of your driveway? You can get out if you drive on the grass. I'm just making sure I understand your stance on using non-roadways to park.
Dude chill the golf is on the “sidewalk” by like an inch this doesn’t hurt anyone except for maybe the tires of the car
Embarrassing for them? Sure. But, I don’t know why this would upset anyone.
I bet OP is from the US. In Europe people park their card anywhere they fit, on any side of the road or sidewalk. So many of their cities were built before personal cars became a thing, after all.
I haven’t been in all of Europe but that’s absolutely not the case everywhere (if anywhere idk).
I don’t think the parking in the image would be any problem though.
Funnily enough I read this article recently: How Neighbors Got NYPD to Stop Parking on a School Sidewalk After 40 Years
Where is “here” for you? I totally understand how it can vary by country. I was most recently in the UK, and I saw cars parked anywhere they could fit.
This is in Europe, but the mildly infuriating part isn’t about the sidewalk, it’s about the car being crooked.
Europe is not a country, dipshit. Don't talk about what people do "in Europe" as if we're a small village somewhere. What you're describing is certainly not true of my country.
That VW Golf is absolutely massive, was the selling point for these not on the basis that they’re supposed to be compact and small? 😳
Better than the people that park 2 feet from the curb.
If this bugs you, you should live in my city, you’d explode. They park on children and old people. They even park dog puppies to death. They’re the worst. They park the world to it’s end.
Call me a purist, but no curb, no sidewalk
That’s the curb, it‘s not entirely clear in the picture. It’s mildly infuriating for the car the be standing crooked like that.
It’s bad parking but by far the worst.
It might be mildly infuriating for the owner of the car if they do it repeatedly. Isn’t this bad for your car’s suspension?
Yeah that’s what I mean by mildly infuriating. I think many people took it for the sidewalk being smaller which certainly isn’t an issue here ^^
It’s not bad if they go at it at a certain angle at a low speed
You must be fun at…well, never I guess?
I‘m talking about the car, not the sidewalk if that’s what you meant

Serious question. Does this cause problems somehow?

I didn’t understand what was the issue till I read the comments

Definitely not for the sidewalk. I found it mildly infuriating for the car to have the rear axis be crooked. But maybe that’s just handled by suspension and not an issue at all. But it looks unpleasant for the car to park like that.

Not a single sidewalk is built to last the weight of a car. They are build as cheap as possible (sand bed + stones), because they are not supposed to get exposed to heavy loads. That’s why they are often in bad conditions, they usually don’t even have tree root protection, so they get regularly misformed from below and above

The only thing I can think of (aside from the remote possibility that someone’s trying to move something very wide along the walkway and their way is blocked by 1") is that it’s very pseudo-OCD triggering, which definitely would put it in the Mildly Infuriating camp, just not in the way that is normally posted here.
