Parking Blues: Driver Learns the Colorful Way Not to Park on the Sidewalk
Perhaps you're still reeling (or recovering) from the fact that you now have to pony up for parking on Sundays in San Francisco. But you know what costs even more than a few hours at the meter or a parking ticket? A new paint job on your car.
We always enjoy some good parking drama, which typically comes in the form of passive aggressive notes and a lot of "fuck yous." But when we came across this image on SF Citizen, we, too wondered if the parking tension has taken on a new life in the city.

Dallis Willard Parking Blues?

We weren't sure what was happening here, so we contacted the photographer, Dallis Willard, who says he also has no clue if some angry person splashed paint all over this car parked on the sidewalk.
Per Willard:
There was paint on the other side as well, and I thought it made an interesting picture. Because it has a square of clear space on the hood, looks like it was parked under something and the paint fell from above. I don't think it was intentional. Have there been other reports of "Paint Splashing"?
Intentional or not, it's hard to take paint falling from the sky as a good sign. Right?
If it is nothing more than dueling parking pricks, then may we suggest these neighbors borrow a dose of that parking Prozac going around in Bernal Heights?
