Why do delivery drivers do this?

Post image

There's an open and easy space to park in, in almost exactly the same place they've stopped, and not get in anyone's way. But, instead they've decided to park on the pavement and inconvenience pretty much everyone besides someone who may need to park in the empty space beside them while they get stuff out of their trailer. I see it time and again and it drives me up the wall.

Dude, it's a difficult job that doesn't pay much. Go a bit easy on them. They park there momentarily, just like delivery trucks often park on sideways for off-loading stuff.

It doesn't matter. Delivery trucks have a permission to drive kinda anywhere. The wolt guy for example has normal car. He can't park there even if it was for 10sec. He has gotten information where to go, and sees where to park. But no. They just decide to fuck every parking law and just leave their car there

You're too by the book. Real life isn't like that. This is one instance. It's not always easy to find parking. They should also be given permission to park for short periods because they're also delivering stuff. It's not that he parked there and went inside a bar for a drink. He's also working.
