Dedicated to Empowering and Informing the Burlingame Community

We haven't had a crazy parking post in a while.  The last one that was photo worthy was in the Safeway lot in November 2023.  Today's headscratcher beats that by a mile.  On Broadway, in broad daylight, someone decided to somehow back into the angled spot on the other side of the street!  Imagine.  You would pull past the open spot, check for on-coming cars then back across the lane into the space.  Then to top it all off, you don't actually back all the way into the space causing eastbound drivers to have to pull into the westbound lane to get around your car.

Broadway was jammed as usual because everyone hates Carmelita now, but I hear the TSP Commission is considering which stupid rubber speed humps to remove at this week's meeting.  Fingers crossed.  I saw parking enforcement walking B'way on my way back 20 minutes later, but not sure if a ticket was issued.  I'm not even sure what said ticket would read?  If I had taken video instead of this still photo, you would have heard Genesis' The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway in the background since it was playing on my radio.  Uncanny.
