Just burn the world and be done with it.

"I think currently the regulation allows for developers to build new properties with garages that are frankly just too narrow," Premier Peter Malinauskas told ABC Radio Adelaide.

"You can't even fit a Hilux or a four-wheel drive in them and that just doesn't make sense given that's where such a significant proportion of the new sale car market in Australia comes from."

That is the fucking point. Holy shot these people have lost the plot. If your car is 2x the size of a normal car then that should mean you suffer 2x the pain. Not everybody else. Next thing they will require garages to each have enough space for a private jet....

Get a grip. Fuck I hate how dumb Australian politicians are. Gonna just move to the Netherlands one of these days

If your car is 2x the size of a normal car then that should mean you suffer 2x the pain. Not everybody else.

Everyone else does suffer the pain, though, because these people park on the street and effectively remove the left lane for several hundred metres at all times.
