We've all done those endless loops searching for an elusive parking space.

You're running late, patience is waning, you need to park up sharpish and there's a muppet sprawled across two bays.

Elsewhere a seen-better-days Corsa is hanging off a kerb and another beacon of courtesy has plonked all four tyres on a pavement.

Nightmare.

With help from an inventively named group, the Watford Observer has compiled some of the biggest parking fails in and around the town. Check them out below.
