I think I’ve just seen my first example of “fully vaccinated” parking.

You know how people with expensive cars sometimes take two spaces so people’s doors won’t bang into them?
Welcome to Uruguay.
I’m from Montevideo, and I have an Audi, so…
I guess this is what happens when you add arrogance to incompetence?

Two parked white vehicles
I guess there’s nothing technically wrong with this parking, it bothers me viscerally.
And I can appreciate that ambulances and fire trucks sometimes put reverse lettering on the front of the vehicle, so you can read it in your rear-view mirror. But something about this application of reverse letters escapes me.

Saturday morning
There’s a story here
but
it isn’t mine to tell
No comment.
Seriously. What‘s to say? I expect people in Chile, Paraguay, Honduras, or many other countries could post and have posted similar.
Still, this was part of my day in Uruguay, today.
Which means no parking (literally “not to park” as I understand it).
New underground business
I haven’t been to Tres Cruces bus terminal and mall in some time. The cool underground parking now features a car wash/oil change place. Interesting.
Oopa
This might have just happened this morning. A few minutes earlier an ambulance calmly went by with its lights flashing. Head hit windshield (doesn’t show in this photo).
The story? Would make a good assignment for a writers’ workshop.
In her own little world
To a North American or European, it might seem a bit bizarre that a woman stopping at a kiosk would make no effort to pull to the side of the road, and instead simply “park” in the middle of the road. And it’s not that there was no traffic — we were stuck for a few minutes waiting to cross the road.
I would probably have to explain to a Uruguayan what’s wrong with this picture from my standpoint.
Es lo que hay.
